Have you read Patton's poem by that title? It's not great but it's a fascinating window into the beliefs of a major historical figure.

In my experience there's a lot of support for reincarnation in judeo-christian scripture, when you read it open to that interpretation.

I hadn't read it until now. Interesting find! I wonder why he chose that title as the teleology of I Cor 13:12 seems straightforward.

My read is that cor 13:12 is about seeing life from both sides, flesh and spirit. Some things are clearer on either side, and we learn from alternating.
