I don’t believe in reincarnation and I never believed in it when I was a frog either.

The universe would be pretty lame if it didn't allow respawns

The reason I feel reincarnation is possible is it’s the only “after life“ that follows the rules of the physical world. Things cannot be created nor destroyed, only transferred or transformed. If we simply always were, and always will continue to be in different forms, that follows the laws of reality. If consciousness is some type of exotic universal phenomenon, some type of energy or essence, it probably has to follow the same cyclical nature of all other forms of energy.

If reincarnation is real. The tombstone must be changed from R.I.P to BRB

reincarnation sounds so great yet awfully sad. restarting life with little to no memory of what used to be you and having to go through long years all over again. it’s comforting to me knowing that i never lose my consciousness, but horrifying knowing i’ll never find who i love ever again, having to relive those long years up to my past death, and how much worse society is going to get in the coming years. it all seems more worth it just to cease to exist altogether.

My 8yr old daughter has been terrified of fire for as long as she's been alive. Fire alarms stress her very much and fire drills scare her more than they do other children. My wife and I can't even leave an aromatic candle on in our room if we step out without her asking us to put it out. We don't necessarily believe in reincarnation but her fears do make us wonder. She's never been burned and we teach her to be careful around fires, but not to the extent that would cause her so much fear.

When I die I want to see "level complete! Freeplay unlocked"

As far as his last statement about the math part, there have been about 110 billion people who have lived and died. With about 8 billion people alive today, the dead outnumber the living between 10 and 15 to 1. Also factor in that not everyone HAS to be a reincarnated person -- new and unique individuals could be born into the system. I don't know if reincarnation is true or not, but trying to use math to disprove it is the wrong approach.

19:08 Guten Tag, I'm Einstein and I have an answer to your question.

The increase in simultaneous human life does not equate to the creation of new human souls. 250 years ago, many more people were born than survived. Those young souls were not reincarnated instantly, as they died before living out their intended life. They waited until medical technology had improved before coming back around. You're welcome.

I don’t believe in reincarnation personally but i still would prefer to be reincarnated than be in a heaven or hell

[michaels]

I never believed in reincarnation. Until my little brother was born and began talking about his past life and other family as soon as he learned to talk. He forgot all of it in a few years and grew up a perfectly normal boy.

Not all of us are reincarnated. In my life I've only met one person that was - without any doubt IMHO - reincarnated. Someone long ago that I tutored to play trombone. He lived in the past, meaning his room was decorated with 1920s-40s style and technology. Although barely able to play his trombone studies, he knew the works of Glenn Miller very well. When presented with a copy of "In the Mood" he not only sight read it, he walked away from the music stand and continued to play. It just so happened that I knew an old man who had played trombone with Glenn Miller's band. When introduced, the two talked for hours about old memories and things only band members would know. The old man told me that if he didn't know better, that he would swear that he was talking to an old deceased friend of his. I've never doubted reincarnation since.

Something that's always over looked is that they've done multiple studies doing brain scans on people as they're undergoing a hypnotic regression, and the parts of their brain that light up are connected to MEMORY, not to the parts used when imagining a story.

"Where did the extra souls come from?" Well... you see... More and more players are joining the Reality MMO, ever since the Industrialism DLC which made the game more accessible and simpler for new players to understand. Furthermore, with the relatively recent addition of security keys (vaccines) players are less likely to get their accounts stolen. xD

They thought the city of Troy was just mythology too until they found it, so who knows, maybe they will find Atlantis someday too. Most every character in Plato's work are verifiably real, so I lean towards Atlantis being a real place.

You know I used to be scared of death, do we reincarnate? Do we become nothingness? Do we go to heaven? Or hell? But now, I will just live my best life, let others live their best lives, enjoy each moment of existing and when the time comes let the universe do whatever it wants.

I feel reincarnation is why some people feel like they are the wrong sex, maybe they were the opposite sex in a past life
