I know I keep coming back to this. But its just interesting how twisted some things can be. The other day, I found out by talking to a family friend that somehow, the Christian faith decided some day to stop the teaching of reincarnation. Granted, this was a long time ago, but I just thought it was worth sharing.
It was during the Council of Nicea in about 325 A.D. where all the bishops decided to get together to decide on a few things. Essentially, all they wanted to do was get their story straight. Fair enough, if I was trying to preach salvation to the masses, I'd like other people doing the same thing to tell the same story. I guess thats one of the reasons why theres been so many religious wars. But I digress...
Personally, I don't really see how reincarnation fits in with Christian teachings today. Theres no place for it. Well actually, theres no real place for a lot of things in it, but oh well. Makes me wonder how they used to do it back then, and how they got it. Perhaps its just my preconceptions of the faith, and how its evolved over the years.
