I do, even as a nonreligionist, think that most religions have something important to say and may have at least some truth to them. Despite me not taking any religion or religious book literally, it does seem that the Bible scriptures match up with some of the phenomena that secular afterlife and paranormal researchers have uncovered over the years. The Bible speaks about mediumship being dangerous, and this seems to be rightfully so as unguided mediumship will likely result in contact with lower entities. Since the lower astral realms and their inhabitants are supposedly closer to the physical realm then much of the concern for the occult can be justified in my eyes. There seems to be a great deal of material in the Bible that appears
to support the accounts of many afterlife books that I've read, including but not limited to the Anthony Borgia books. Even the concept of Hades seems to match up with the lower astral realms. I wonder how many people, Christians included, really attempt to read the Bible for themselves. Sadly it's been demonstrated that atheists in general seem to know much more about the Bible than most Christians do.Statistics: Posted by Paradox — 07 Jul 2013, 01:50
