The French Wikipedia article has a lot of material... 19:58, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Crowley Fetus

The bit about Crowley being the reincarnation of Levi is odd. It assumes the possibility of reincarnation, and then it goes on to assume that if reincarnation is possible, the transfer must take place instantaneously after death. If you're going to accept reincarnation as a possibility, why would it matter how long it took for Soul A to migrate into Body B? --76.83.249.234 03:46, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

I think it's of interest to know chronology when there is a claim of reincarnation. If I claim to be the reincarnation of Princess Diana of Wales, for instance, people are less likely to believe me than if I claim to be reincarnated from someone who died before I was conceived. That death needs to occur before reincarnation is of course an assumption, but it's one many people make. Here the sequence is a bit more subtle: death before birth, but not death before conception. It's still interesting to note. Fuzzypeg☻ 03:56, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Adding bibliography

Could we possibly have a bibliography of Levi's works? Senoraraton 04:54, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
