Isaiah 53 - Messianic Prophecy?

Did you read the first few paragraphs of the article? It seems to equate reincarnation to believing in God.

Which is the “common definition” of reincarnation that you referred to above?

One can believe in God and not believe in reincarnation as reincarnation is commonly understood - a human being who dies comes back as another life form on earth.

Did you attend the same 'reincarnation class' as sonship?

How many times do you have to ask? Did you not read "a human being who dies comes back as another life form on earth"? Or was it "too long"?

I thought we were discussing actual recognised definitions rather than opinion.

Wikipedia is largely "opinion".

Yes, it is the “common opinion” as he stated, rather that the Romans1009 opinion, which was exactly my point!

The point is that it's the 'same' soul that is reincarnated. (And the goal of course not to return at all).

Good luck explaining that to Sonship or Romans.

What are you on about? (An expression I picked up from this forum.)

I said the dictionary definition was the commonly-accepted definition but not the one used in the article referenced by Ghost. According to the article, belief in God equals belief in reincarnation. That’s false. One can believe in God without believing in reincarnation.

We get that, honey. We just don’t believe that the same soul comes back to earth and inhabits another body.

Nor, do I think, 51 percent of people believe that as the article you referenced seems to equate believing in God with believing in reincarnation. One can (and hundreds of millions of people do) believe in God and do not believe in reincarnation.

You're slowly descending in to creepy.

(And who was talking about what you believe? We were discussing reincarnation and what people who believe in reincarnation believe. - Your inability to explore beliefs outside of your own is tragic).
