Regarding Steve Hutchison's article in reply to Lew Mammel:
Steve speaks of the re-incarnation of Elijah the Prophet as John the Baptist
as being part of Christian tradition.  This is news to me.  I know that
one of Jesus' apostles, in reponse to the question ``Who do they say I am?''
said ``Some say Elijah, others John the Baptist'' (Source of quote -- the
standard Roman C. Church's Sunday mass scriptures) but nowhere do I recall
either hearing or reading ANYTHING that suggested that JtB was a Elijah
re-incarnated.  Elijah and Moses appear in the Gospel (don't ask me for
chapter and verse or I might start reading scripture as a hobby and then
this group would REALYY be in trouble) in the Transfiguration of Jesus;
JtB is, as far as I know, completely a different person/spirit/soul/whatever.

Steve, can you point me to your references?
