The following speculation came about as the result of a dialogue with Elizabeth Emerald. We both agree that an abusive God who would force compliance on helpless creatures would be horrific.

The only clarification I would add to the subject, regards the question of what happens spiritually to criminals who confess and beg forgiveness. From what Medium writers have said who channel Archangels, it seems that we have the option of never being reincarnated again — and if we choose this option, there is no punishment in the spiritual realm. This is what it means to be forgiven.

But neither is there any growth. We will continue for eternity at whatever level we attained at our last incarnation.

If we want to grow as spiritual beings, we have to choose reincarnation — and when we’re in a body we will have to suffer fitting penalties for the crimes we committed against others in our past lives — EVEN THOUGH we confessed our sins and have been forgiven. This is why Karma is scientific. It embodies the law of Cause and Effect.

The Causes we generated WILL result in Effects. How we feel about it doesn’t matter. Are we sorry? Too bad. We still have to pay the piper.

So that is the answer to the questions we all ask about Hitler and the Mansons. Yes, such criminals will be forgiven…but they will still have to pay in direct compensation for how they caused others to suffer, in order to bring the scales back into balance. Karma and Forgiveness are two separate things.

And since continual spiritual growth is the dharmic pattern of the universe, everyone will choose reincarnation sooner or later. No one can put off paying the price forever.

This seems to be the way it is. But we are still allowed our own opinions on the deal. And I, for one, think there is something faulty about it.

It’s very hard to explain exactly what that would be. On the one hand, the math equals out. But on the other hand, it seems to generate a whole new case of suffering, which is very hard to justify!

The Soul Personalities who became my mother and my wife must have done some pretty nasty things in past incarnations. But in this most recent incarnation, they were both sweet, lovely, intelligent, talented, compassionate ladies who suffered and died from terrible medical conditions.

It takes a Nazi-level discipline to accept the suffering of such beings as simply their due for past mistakes.

I said it before, and I’ll say it again: I don’t think the One thought things through enough, before putting this whole comedy into motion.
