Well spoken Monica! Please accept my applause! You beat me to the same idea I came to yesterday upon reflection of Quantum's post. Although you expanded on the idea quite a bit more in your prelude then I will be able to.
I was going to respond, that the author(s) of Oahspe set out to provide some of the basics of TLOO using the particular format of a bible. The implied reason for doing this, I feel, was to speak to those entities who at the time were already bent more towards western religious faith. So in doing, it would be a conflict of interest to expand the knowledge therein so far as to turn away those entities who would probably not accept something like reincarnation to be true. They would miss out on the benefit of the larger, more important principals.
If I may, (without proclaiming the above topic closed by any means) I would like to direct our attention at something I consider a bit more confusing about Oahspe, that being it's long list of 'Firsts':
More true prophecies in Oahspe can be found here: http://www.studyofoahspe.com/id3.html
Considering that Ra confirmed the source of Oahspe as that of The Confederation, how are we to digest the above information? The given information about the celestial body Pluto, for example, is nearly 50 years in advance of its scientific discovery. This is amazing, but is it not a rather sizable violation of free will, not to mention being very uncharacteristic of Confederation sources? With this information I could argue with the strictest paranormal-skeptic that channeling is real, and that (at the very least) some form of extra-terrestrial consciousness / spirit exists. Isn't that exactly what we're not supposed to be able to do in 3rd density?
I have to admit here, that on some level my own skeptical hell-fire was quenched yesterday upon learning of Oahspe. Oddly enough- I have been praying for something like this to forever silence the skeptic alarm in my head that I cannot seem to consciously silence. (See my thread, 'Why do you believe?' for more on this theme) Maybe the vibrational request for information such as Oahspe offers is what is required to find it?
The only speculation I can conjure is that the vast, vast majority of people have never heard about Oahspe, or TLOO for that matter, have not heard so by mere coincidence. Maybe only those who really want to have that information will find it, due to some cosmic law? I am otherwise puzzled. (which, as a side note, is actually a very nice feeling, wouldn't you say?)
In love and all humility,
L.
By the way, Quantum, what other conflicts between Oahspe and TLOO did you find when reading Oahspe? And did you find many similarities?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oahspe#Oahspe_.22Firsts.22 Wrote:Oahspe is a book having numerous "Firsts". For example, it was the first to use the word Starship long before science-fiction writers conceived of interstellar space travel.[28]
Too, Oahspe describes a cosmogony that gives details of the field of force of the sun and the planets, including comets. It describes properties not known at the time. To name a couple:
* Describing the sun’s field of force that reaches beyond Neptune,[29] and pushes the tails of comets away from it[30][31] (the solar wind was not postulated until more than half a century later);[32] and
* Identifying the outer small bodies before even the first of them was first sighted[33] (Pluto was discovered half a century later, in 1930).[34]
