It's a very interesting book about shapeshifting (werewolves would be included). Basically, the premise is that there are people out there that have the ability to shift...either mentally, astrally, dream shifting, and of course physical shifting.

Or any of you astral projectors out there...try shifting in the astral plane. I myself have yet to go OOB but definately believe in it because I almost did once but got scared and snapped back into my body.

Mental shape-shifting is the same as the "borrowed genius" excerise IMO. It can be done by anybody, anytime. All you need is a taperecorder, or a listening partner.

Interesting....never heard of it before. I'll have to look more carefully into it. I just thought of what I forgot to mention before. The mental shifting is like the berzerkers. They would get themselves into a frenzy and actually become bear like....in their thinking and actions...that's what made them terrifying for their enemies to encounter.

I've seen a "shape-shifter" before. It's an illusion though. This particular "shape-shifter" was in league with Satan and therefore deployed demonic powers to lend him the appearance of "shape-shifting". It is an illusion/delusion nevertheless. The only way to find the fullfillment you are seeking is through the Lord Jesus Christ. Read the Bilbe and take it literally and your life will transform - you will transform. You can be saved and cleansed if you merely accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour. Everything is spiritual...whether you believe it or not. You can either accept the Lord Jesus Christ or deny Him...like the shape-shifters do.

Just decide what kind of price you want to pay.

Well MacMerdin, because of certain things and connections (more specific the werewolf connection) you explained to me, you tickled my interest. So I have an endless list of questions... So if you'd be so kind as to explain them... I will concentrate most of my questions around "Transforming" / shape-shifting into animals. And please excuse me if I don't use the correct terms.
(I'm also surprised that this topic took a religious turn...)
1. What are the different ways of shape shifting? You mentioned shape shifting in dreams, physical shifting, etc. What are the different "difficulty levels" for each type?
2. Are you thus saying that it is possible for a human (specifically those who mastered the art) to physically transform into an animal? Looking at plain science, we know that it's next to impossible because every fibre and cell of a human will have to be able to change. Human cells are not that "advanced". How can this thus be?
3. What would the typical animals be a person can "transform" into (physically or mentally). Is a person limited to one animal?
4. Why does it seem that most of these (shape shifting) humans/animals are predators? Bears, lions, wolves, etc. Doesn't this put shape shifting in a negative light, because a "transformed" person (i.e. animal) can be a danger to other people?
5. What would the general purpose of this "gift" be? Warfare? Self-defence?
6. Is this "gift" of being a "shape shifter" (were) something that can be learned by anyone or is it limited to some people.
7. What would the characteristics of a “were” (shape shifter) be, i.e. how would you know you are one?
Hmmm... I think that will do for now. But there's lots more where that came from...
