Yes, a conventional college, Cheltenham in Gloustershire.
Enjoyed Religious Studies at A level which is why i went on to study it a degree level. People are passionate about politics and religion (a passion you just don't get in geography or French) and the discussions were as appealing to be then as these spirituality forums are to be now. - My a ...[text shortened]... on to my minor subject, Educational Studies. (Was initially planning on becoming an RE Teacher).

If one's soul can eventually return to 'Godhead', then can the irredeemable soul finally go to 'Anti-Godhead"? Or is he just slapped on the wrist and sent back time and again to harm other souls again? This sounds like the irredeemable ones would build up in the world, then, eventually making any 'Godly' soul's journey even more difficult. Great religion ...[text shortened]... me, it is more and more likely that other souls you run across, regardless of species, are evil.
If a soul is acting evil (as you put it) it doesn't act evil every time it takes a new birth, just the same way that a soul may take birth as a black man in one incarnation, and then it can be a white women in its next.
The soul is not male or female.
And why do they keep coming back to the material world of suffering and death..
Because they want to Lord it over the material energy and suck as much illusionary happiness from the 6 senses.
Remember the soul came to this material world in the first place because of its desire to be God.
God knows the soul cannot be God, so sets up this material world to allow the deluded soul to try.
This is why this world is full of suffering with the experience of flickering happiness now and again.
This suffering by design is meant to dis-encourage the soul to stay in the material world.
Their suffering is of their own making.
Note: Any soul can return to the eternal spiritual world at any time, if they embrace true religion and re-kindle their love for God.

Your question is illogical.
There is nothing false in the theory of evolution. Deep down, i think you know that.

Although i respect your right to form you own view on things,to me rejection of evolution (or the fact that the world is billions of years old) is equivalent to rejecting the idea that we breath oxygen.
I think conspiracy theories are very corrosive and i fear you have been exposed to too many of them. I would urge you to google less and read more objectively.

They also must be free of illusion and be pure of heart and love the Lord in truth.
There is not a Christian on the planet that qualifies.

You can look them straight in the eye and tell them the most fundamental truth..........and they will reject it because their false doctrine says otherwise.
Therefore the main-stream religions that teach falsehoods are ( Islam Christianity and Judaism)

There is an atheist in this forum that doesn't believe in God because he cannot understand the existence of a non-flying bird.
Because this world is an illusionary dream and not our true home, there are negative and positive aspects to this temporary material world of duality and suffering.
It there is a bird that flies, then there will be a bird that can ...[text shortened]... of our being and raise our consciousness to Krsna Consciousness and return back home to Godhead.
