I agree with you first. However, dead bodies may not jump from the
grave, but they have come back to life and that is not just Yahshua.
There have been people declared dead during our present times that
have come back to life. Animal slaughter may be cruel and cause
suffering if not done properly. However, if done properly, it is not cruel
and does not cause pain and is not sinful if done for the right reason.

Dead and rotting bodies do not come back to life.

Killing is the issue - not whether you are kind about or not.

In most cases there is no care in the slaughtering process.

Killing is condemned because we cannot end the life of sentient beings whimsically to satisfy the tongue.

Every creature has their particular life span and we have no right to interfere with that.

I have never heard if the body that came back to life was rotting,
but I have heard of a body come back to life in the funeral home
just before it was being prepared for embalming. A story about
it was in the local newspaper.

I have never, never heard of a soul jumping out of one body and
into another though. You Hindus are the only ones that I know ...[text shortened]... ch a thing. I have never read about
it in the newspaper or seen any proof that it is possible.

I am not talking about someone in a funeral home who was pronounced dead 12 hrs. before.

They were not dead to begin with.

Bible says that the dead and rotting bodies in the grave will all come back to life when Jesus returns in the future.

This will not happen.

Oh. I see you don't believe God has enough power to bring back alive
those that have died and put in the grave 2000 years ago. Right?

They're not staying in my place! I only let first round humans in, anyone that has been in the gorund for 2000yrs is too stinky , even for me.

Funny. But I guess you know there would most likely just be bones
left and the stink would be gone by then.

Cool. Unstinking,walking skeltons. I want 3 then.

I'm going to ask Santa for a fluffy, cuddly, stuffed half-rotted corpse doll for Christmas. Complete with the little spray bottle of rot-smell to keep it real.

The soul does not jump from one body to the next.

The soul enters the womb by way of the semen from the male and life begins at conception.

With plants - the soul enters the seed when the conditions of life are available - namely water, sunshine etc.

So we should all add 9months to our ages?

Originally posted by Dasa
Yes........of course.

Every living being has an allotted time span to live on this earth.

If you are 20 yrs old - then you are 20yrs closer to your death.

You mean 20 years and 9 months closer to your death 🙂

Does that mean abortion=murder?
