Was Reba once a man?
My friend Quinn Hooks shared this the other day but I’m not sure how many saw it. Uggh!
[The Boot & Pittsburgh Post Gazette}
Although Reba McEntire fears that fellow Christians might criticize her for it, the singer says she believe she's been reincarnated.
"I believe I've gone both ways -- that I have been here before as a man," the 53-year-old (in this life, anyway) tells the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "I believe I have spent time with my son Shelby before. I believe I have spent time with other people in my life before. Who knows? Maybe I'm part Buddhist."
As for reconciling her Christian faith with her belief in reincarnation, McEntire says, "I'm sorry, but this is how I live my life, this is what I believe."
"My talent is a gift from God," McEntire explains. "I need to use it. If I don't, I wouldn't blame Him one bit if he took it away and gave it to someone else. I am very blessed, and never lose sight of that. When I die, I want to leave something behind. I want my kids to say, 'Gee, Mom really did some good on this earth.'
[From me]
Reba is free to believe what she wants. But belief in reincarnation goes against the teachings of the Bible. A true follower of Jesus knows that is appointed for a person to die just once and then face the judgment. Where do these stars get such whacked out beliefs?
What do you think?

Sorry but I have to question two things here:
(1) Her “talent”…aahh matter of opinion.
(2) I can’t reconcile the teachings of the bible with her now belief in reincarnation. Sounds like more gobbledygook to me.

“Maybe I’m part Buddhist?”
What part of himself did Christ say was Buddhist?
