(don't know which chapter)...Isaiah is talking about a new heaven (sky), and new Earth where men will live as long as trees and even sinners will live to 100...or something like that. Not that I believe everything in the Bible, but some stuff in it make for interesting discussion...definately reincarnation is mentioned like you stated. Also what some Christians refer to as the rapture in the last days...what is meant by last days is last days in the fact that there is an end to time and elightenment.... its kinda funny if you like sexual humor: "There will be two men lying in one bed, one will be taken one will be left behind" "There will be two women grinding in the field, one will be taken and one will be left behind" *LOL* Don't know the chapters, but its pretty much right on. Now what he is refering to here isn't some alien type rapture that most Christians think of. It is enlightenment...the old self dies (left behind) and the True Self awakens (taken) Many religious folk will argue against this...but this is what he (Jesus) is saying. You could ask why does Jesus use two people in these parables and not 3,4,5 or even 10? The answer is because there is no rapture and the 2 people that he is refering to is actually just one person (the false ego, and True Self) Thanks, Aaron
