Wow...Reiki, you took the words right out of my mouth on religion, and the "good vs. bad" topic.
I also do believe in reincarnation. I think that you live and live again until you find out your true purpose, because life is too short to find it. You may either miss the opportunity, or just not get to it. Plus, I think it allows you to live life in someone else's shoes. Interesting...
I do not believe in the devil or hell as the bible or many religions describe it. One reason I do not believe in hell is because I think of God as my father, my loving me unconditionally father, with a love greater than my father has for me, which is hard to fathom, because my dad worships the ground I walk on, Daddy's little girl...
If god loves me in this way, there is no way that he could send me to a place of eternal damnation. No way...it's just not possible. The devil is just a scapegoat of evil, since everyone always blames it on him or his demons. I believe God created everything, good and bad, it's neccesary to learn life's lessons. Like Eclipse said, how can we appreciate sunshine if not for rain?
