Well like i said there is the concept of the "Twin Soul". Him/her is basically the Other half of your soul. A person can have many soul mates but they can only have ONE Twin Soul. Life after life. You can reunite with this twin soul in the physical, or it can also possibly be an entity residing in the astral. A twin soul CAN be your "Soul Mate" in the romantic sense but he/she doesnt necessarily have to be. It just means you'll always end up drawn to each other like kindred spirits, whatever the connection may be. So if you subscribe to this belief then yes from the very beginning we are all appointed to another

So that then begs the question, how do you know if your present GF or wife is your soulmate or your twinsoul??

I was listening to a radio show about people who suffer from depression and how some are suicidal, and I'm thinking if they knew about astral world after they die they would all kill themselves en masse.  Its probably better they dont know

Amidst all the theorizing, have you considered going to the astral and asking someone about this? Most people engage in romance and relationships so pretty much any spirit would do

I only OBE'd twice so far and they were both only a few feet above my body. 
I have yet to enter the astral world, thats after many months of trying

So kinda like this guy says then: http://www.kktanhp.com/twin_souls.htm

One can and do have many soul mates but one has only one twin soul

Ahright, let me rephrase then.  Is there a God appointed soulmate for each person??  IOW has God planned a partner for each person ahead of time (before you were even born) and is that the person you're supposed to be with??

Another thing I'm trying to figure out if there is such a thing as a 'soulmate'.  IOW is there only one girl for every guy out there.  And if so maybe thats what accounts for such high divorce rates. If you're not married to your soulmate the marriage simply wont work, no matter how hard you try

Well, think about most wedding ceremonies.

"...till death do us part."

It would seem that the act of dying removes one from all marriage obligations.  And the REAL strange part is that I THINK most religious ceremonies have this line in there and these same religions generally have some form of afterlife.  So, what exactly does that say for that religion and how "dear" they hold the act of marriage?

Jesus touches on the subject in Matthew 22: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%2022&version=NLT

23 That same day Jesus was approached by some Sadducees—religious leaders who say there is no resurrection from the dead. They posed this question: 24 "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies without children, his brother should marry the widow and have a child who will carry on the brother's name.' 25 Well, suppose there were seven brothers. The oldest one married and then died without children, so his brother married the widow. 26 But the second brother also died, and the third brother married her. This continued with all seven of them. 27 Last of all, the woman also died. 28 So tell us, whose wife will she be in the resurrection? For all seven were married to her."

29 Jesus replied, "Your mistake is that you don't know the Scriptures, and you don't know the power of God. 30 For when the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. In this respect they will be like the angels in heaven"

But I gotta be honest and say I dont understand what he means by this exactly.  If we become like the angels surely your wife on earth will also become an angel, in which case you'd still recognize her in astral.  And if you recognize each other you would obviously still feel some need to be together (assuming you were really in love with your spouse)

I'd like to think it's a common occurrence

That would be really cool if true.  

The biggest fear most couples have is of course death and that their relationship will some day come to an end.  But it makes sense for it to continue in astral, too bad most people dont believe in afterlife cause it would definitely make their marriage stronger here in the physical

An entire town sees a ghost in a small Colombian town and manage to capture it on video:

Say if a married man dies today and his wife dies a year later, is it normal for them to hook up again in the astral world??  Abd if so is it a regular occurrence??  And what if some guy had multiple wives or divorced a few of them, how would that work??

Lets keep in mind religion does not = spirituality.
And believing in God does not = religion. 

*sigh* that's not why you were banned... say "panties in a wad" all you like Nay.  I PM'd you the reason.
Let's please get back to the topic at hand though.

A trip to Hell! 

Unless it's run it's course...

Some people have the theory that life in this physical world is hell. 
Dunno if I completely agree with that though.  I think every person creates their own type of hell

Everything tastes like chicken! 

But yeah, seriously, Fresco, haven't you ever had a dream in which you were eating something you really loved and it just tasted SO... DAMN... GOOD?

Ive done lots weird stuff in my dreams, but cant honestly say I ever ate a meal in astral.  If I did I dont remember it though

Do people eat meals in astral??  I was wondering this today 

In the bible, lust doesn't  mean sex.  Lust is a state of wanting something.  It can be the neighbor's cattle, or his wife.  Which back then, were equally valuable.  So when it considers lust a sin, it means that you shouldn't covet that which isn't yours

Agreed (dont covet), but thats just one of several interpretations, its not the only one though IMO

Now the real challenge here is thusly; who cares what the Bible says about it?

I do since I'm Christian, which doesnt make me exactly popular in the online community, but thems the brakes

The Bible does detail lust as being sinful, though, especially when it is unchecked and hedonistic

Where??!

All it talks about is "sexual immorality" but then can cover many things like incest, pay-for-sex, homosexuality, bestiality..etc.
Nowhere does it say a boyfriend & girlfriend cant have sex.

Most likely because that's a relatively new addition whereby the people making up the rules now added in due to their own beliefs... and them trying to force that belief upon others.

Just a thought.

And a way for the church to control their flock. 
Hey you sinner, dont have sex or you're going to hell.  And make sure you keep tithing us every month.

This is why I dont go to church.  I do tithe, but I tithe to charities

I might even buy the DVD if the movie is half decent:

I'd love to know what caused him to have the sudden astral vision.  
Maybe its something he ate, or maybe some prescription drug he took by accident.  If we know what caused it maybe we can replicate it.

Heck, I might even email him and ask him to join our forum

Just to add to that shineling, I'm not sure you were being tested with those hot girls.  Last time I looked in the bible there's nothing evil or sinful with a man and a woman having sex.  Heck, some the greatest Biblical men had plenty of concubines (unmarried girlfriends).  Not one peep from God about this.

The modern church teaches pre-marital sex is a sin, this is fact.
But if thats the case why does it nowhere in the Bible directly say: "Thou shall not have premarital sex"??!!

It might be worth coughing up the $5

God's souls are tested every step of the way. That is why I am thinking that even normal everyday life here on Earth is a test

You are dead right about that!

Most people fail daily tests and dont even know they're failing.
Heck, most dont even know they're being tested at all

This one should be interesting

Movie trailer: http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/independent/wakeup/

Jonas Elrod was leading an ordinary life until he woke up one day to a totally new reality. He suddenly could see and hear angels, demons, auras and ghosts. The documentary WAKE UP follows this fascinating story of an average guy who inexplicably developed the ability to access other dimensions. Physicians gave him a clean bill of health and were unable to provide an explanation

I cant find the torrent and its not on google video.  Maybe someone else can find it for us??
It came out a few months ago.
