Ah, welcome to read and find out...unfortuantly the only LDS people I have known have all been very very odd. Alcoholic, sexist, or just strange. So I try not to talk about your religion much. Also been jaded by an HBO show...
My faith (LDS) actually does believe our souls existed before birth, even before the Earth was created. We chose to come down to Earth and receive a body, and be tempted and tested while we were here.
We don't believe in reincarnation though. So there's not some soul pool our souls return to after death, and we do believe in the Final Judgment, Resurrection, and Heaven, though there again it is all a bit different than most Christian religions.
I've never heard of the Chamger of Guph, though now I'll probably wikipedia it or something to read up on it. Never heard of the movie either.
I believe this is actually a concept the Jewish and Christian religions talk about (the Chamber of the Guph)... interesting thought actually ...
Hmm not in any version of Christianity I have seen...as far as I know souls are created when a child is concieved in most forms of christianity. We don't really have a concept of reincarnation..need to check out the seventh sign haven't seen that.

Does anything destroy your soul permanently?

Might as well throw "Becoming a Grey Man" up there, but nothing short of a free DO could do it, IMO.

I agree about becoming a Grey Man, and Machin Chin too and possibly Fain's tricks *NM*

Yes, Aran'gar mentioned in KoD that Aginor created those creatures in the AoL as servants.

RJ said that Trolloc souls were tainted, and would always be reborn as Trollocs.
