As UB has so aptly pointed out, the necessity for a Savior is ONLY incurred by the Christian Relgion. In the grand scheme of things, there is no reason for anyone to believe that they need a savior, aside from being TOLD they do. Other religions might not feel the need for a savior, or to be saved. That is part of their religions, and doesn't make sense to you because of your Christian upbringing. I honestly believe that if you had been born in the mountains of China that you would be a Buddhist (or Hindu; whichever one is most popular in that area).

Reincarnation holds a bad or blase connotation, with Americans such as you, due to cultural differences. Do you see what I am getting at here?
