The Christian cultures, as they are sometimes presented, are a little confusing, to say the least .
I say that because when ill fortune hits a particular Christian , some believe it’s the work of devil’s, demons, or witches that are cursing them .They have no references to previous lives and think one life means heaven or hell eternally , so their previous sowing and their current reaping are not connected in their eyes , they blame the evil spirits, not themselves.
Is this a true reflection on the truth of Christian theological positions , I don’t think so .
Every theologically driven culture has its strengths and weakness, and throughout history, infiltrators and speculations can easily arise within them all .
We have great appreciation for all theological cultures, but every one of them needs references to traditions and roots , and it must be clearly demonstrated. God is a rational person , and all His dealings make sense. Free will and determinism need to be properly explained.
As you sow, so shall you reap can mean many things , and those who say it only means heaven or hell forever appear very, very immature theologians.
And those that explain bad fortune is coming from the devil or evil and is a curse , also needs reference, we need thorough examination and much further considerations theologically as to what is meant. Nothing is left to the sentimentalist when it comes to theological matters , but rather, it must also be scientific, logical, and show the evidence of the obvious rationale of an all merciful God .Mercy above justice is another consideration.
The soul is eternal, and the symptoms of the soul are consciousness , the Vedas clearly say and define consciousness. That consciousness is scientifically shown to be in all creatures , not just humans is an undisputed fact . Thou shall not kill in that case should mean what it says .
