Harm none? So if people try to attack and kill you or your family you would not defend yourself?
That would be against the natural order. Animals hunt food and defend themselves, but Christians say that is wrong. It is more about intent. You would look to the Divine for guidance and you would fight to the death to protect you children. Pacifism is not even what Jesus taught, he taught compassion not cowardice.
We are never supposed to proselytize. You are on your own path. It is your mission to learn something in this life, and it is up to you to figure out what that is. Anybody elses' beliefs may get you off of that path. You may spend years wandering. I do believe in the possibility of reincarnation. There is a lot to learn.
Okay, so you would defend yourself.
Obviously I don't agree with your other beliefs. Reincarnation is totally contrary to Christianity. Reincarnation means there is no eternal hell. To say Christians are not supposed to proselytize basically means the Apostles and the Saints and martyrs were wrong in what they did to spread Christianity across the world.
The protestants started this belief of sola scripture (bible alone). I was commenting on the subject of zionist "Christian" earlier and I found a short concise E Michael Jones video that addresses bible alone, https://www.bitchute.com/video/4GBaPrvDWWM/
I can't get video to play right today. I'll have to watch it later. I feel I need to say this though, reincarnation is not unheard of in the Bible. John the Baptist was a reincarnation of Elijah. The Bible says that, then theologians try to say it meant something else. Jesus was asked why a baby was born blind, was it something the baby had done in another life? Jesus said no. So the idea was around.
Some people deserve to be punished even severely, but I would like to think over an eternity any soul can be redeemed. Considering the circumstances some people, children are born into, It is not a level playing field. Truth is, I don't know so I count on reason and guidance from many sources instead of one. Jews don't believe in Hell, so why do Christians? It really comes from Zoroastrianism.
It is a control mechanism. Fear. There is no reason to fear God. Fear yourself.
