Re: Reincarnation

[pantswarrior]

Actually it was in one of the series of Avalon books by Marion Zimmer Bradley - which if you're not familiar with it, is sort of semi-historical-fiction mixed with Arthurian legend, written by (from what I have heard from someone who knew her household personally) a wiccan. And given the time period in which King Arthur allegedly was to have lived, there's a lot of interaction with the Roman Empire and discussion of the earliest version of Christianity. I think the context was actually a follower of the old religion trying to find common ground with a Christian, though it's been ages.

So I guess when you boil it down, it was a fictional character written by a pagan who first floated the idea where I could see it, and I kinda went "......Uh. WAT." But then I was thinking about it, and nothing I remembered reading in the Bible expressly said that reincarnation COULDN'T happen, and there's so much we can't possibly know that... well, maybe it COULD be seen that way. Of course, even if it is in fact a Biblically documented case of reincarnation, there's no reason to assume that it wasn't a single isolated instance which has never happened before or since, since the whole situation at the time was pretty unique.

It's just one of those things where I have no way of knowing, so I won't rule it out OR cling to it - because when it gets down to it, it doesn't really matter anyway. What I *do* believe is that regardless of whether we get multiple turns on the earth or not, we should be the best people we can be while we're here now.
