I'm also a believer in reincarnation. A person isn't punished in this life, they will in the next. I'm not going to try to preach to people though.
People in the military are trained to be like that. They are not trained to really deal with civilians. They get caught up in the heat of battle. There's a reason so many veterans get permanent psychological damage.
In business, people don't think of other people, they think of numbers. You don't think of real people in a video game, and that's all they really appear to be in business. Numbers contributing to your "score" to make it go higher.
Do you believe that your actions in this life determin what tier of live you get next time around? Therefor instead of hell, you get sewer rat? Or are do you belive in a clean slate each time. In that case, what religen are you?
In life, people don't think of other people
Fix'd that. *Emo hair flick* but realy, the only thing stopping all sorts of foul actions in fear of some sort of retribution, be it police or holy.
No, there are no "tiers of life". All life is equally "sacred" and should be respected. Whatever you are reincarnated as is probably determined by the gods in some way, most likely constructed to teach you a lesson somehow.
Uh huh, you go ahead and think that. I'll be here with those that say that people aren't all bad. Really, life is not naturally good or bad. Including humans and whatever sentient life may or may not exist out there. (Hey, you never know, right?)
If my memory serves my correctly CrownofFire is reading about Wicca and from the sound of it that is indeed his religion. And I think that would mean he believes that every living think at some point has or will be a tree, turtle, shark if you've been good.
Sort of. You will get reincarnated as a bunch of other things, but I don't pretend to know what you will be reincarnated as, nor when it all "ends". (Presumably, when the universe does, unless it all starts up again)
