No, but there is a resurrection for all.
Hebrews 9:27-28 Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.

No I don't believe in reincarnation. To those that do by culture comes grievous troubles - the caste system came out of that.
Deja vu means "already seen". The opposite is "jamais vu" and it means never seen. People with poor memory, dementia etc. have jamais vu more often thanthe rest of us.
Deja vu happens when you have seen something similar at another time - be it that day or in the last while. It can be as simple as being in the wrong store. I went to one store and needed to go back after something else. On the return trip, the store I went into was not the same one as the first but it has a similar layout where goods were placed. The people in the store were not the same.

de ja vou is simply the minds way of making up for all the times it left ya sittin' there lookin' like a total dumb *** cuz you couldn't recall some useless fact...like the name of a song or movie or your teachers name from the fifth grade..that is of course until about 5 seconds before you drift off to sleep then the neuron fires startling you awake with the answer...Mrs. Sweeny..oh yeah.... So the brain likes to do a little something wierd..something cool..something to make ya go...Hey! What the blankety blank was that all about? Like fer instance I had one not too long ago that had me recognize a transpirance of exchange over pancakes at breakfast with my kids, my brother and his family and etc that seemed so familiar that I felt I must have dreamed it or something. Ya see? Your brain is forced to recognize and be familiar and recall memories so often throughout the day that occasionally it gets one wrong or releases the chemical to induce the feeling of familiarity. Like when you are laying in a dark room and the "sound" of a light switch being flicked on is made so your eyes prepare for the flood of light so much so that for a fraction of a second you think you did see a flicker. Ya see? Why would deja vu have you remember such trivial little scenarios like a family breakfast that couldn't have occured in a past life anyway cuz maybe you were a native of Zimbabwe where they don't have bisquick or mr.butterworths syrup or your kids or brother. I mean..if you were Cleo Patra in a former life..cuz we were all famous ya know?..would she have been sitting around a table with kids, husband, family..munching on buttery pancakes and syrup, on a sunday morning with the smell of coffee sitting too long on the burner, the morning news on CNN blaring from the T.V. Deja vu if anything is the launching of the memory forward for a cupple seconds er something..I don't know but I'm giving myself a headache sittin here discussing this...with basically myself. Deep thots by Chubby Housefrau. There is no reincarnation. When you die..you become dirt..that's the only thing you turn into. When Jesus comes back you will be raised to judgement. That's it..that's all. Just make sure you choose Him. Love in Christ, ~J~ <><

You've hit the nail right on the head why people believe in not only reincarnation but any religion - it helps remove the fear of death. Surviving death, of course, is a delusion but a comforting delusion. People don't look for the truth - regardless of how blindingly obvious it may be - they prefer the comfort of a fairy tale fantasy land. Maybe some day the human race will grow up.

Yes, i do believe in it. I'm a Buddhist, and it teaches about re-incarnation and karma.
Ever wonder why good people die early and bad people die later?
Good people:
It seems like they did enough karma to cover this life, so they will go to another world, which is better than present life.
Bad people:
They are being put on tests to see if they will do good, but because they repeat bad deeds again and again, they are given more time to commit more mistakes, and then when they die, either they go to hell or re-incarnate as a lower life.

According to Hindu Religion, Re-incarnation does happen and what ever deeds we perform in this birth, the pluses and minues are carried forward and one Mr Chandragupta keeps the ledger. Interesting stuff but who knows, but one thing is there that this helps keep the minuses down to a larger extent and help the society have some semblance of order.

For Christians, the Bible makes it very clear. NO. Ecclesiastes chapter 3 verse 2 tells us everything has its season... its time; a time to be born, and a time to die. Over in the New Testament we read in Saint Paul's letter to the Hebrews, chapter 9 verse 27, And just as it is appointed for mortals to die once, and after that the judgment. By accepting Christ and living as you should as a Christian is what what gives comfort in the face of death.

Yes
In simple logical terms, as in the law of energy, meaning you cannot create or destroy energy but convert to another energy form - It's a change between Kinetism (something like Kinetic Energy)and potency (Something like Potential Energy). Kinetism when you are living, potency when you are dead - changing of this back to Kinetism is re-birth.
But as per Theravada Buddhism, it is much more than this, it is described very well in Theravada Buddhism. If you can get hold of a proper scholar of Theravada Buddhism, they will explain - I am not sure about it and do not want to make any comments.

No, I don't believe in reincarnation. If you don't want to be afraid of death, how about studying the true teaching of Islam. In Islamic teaching, there is a place where the people living in that place will not have any worries, they will live indifinitely, they will not taste death, all are in a peace and happy state. After people die in this world, they will go to that place. That place is called "Jannah" or "Firdaus" (Paradise).

Yes. I've read a lot about it. There are some amazing documented cases of children who are utterly convinced they are in actual fact someone else. They know the names of their previous family members, street names, all sorts. And when they are checked out, it's all found to be true. It's fascinating.

Withe the fact that life force is energy and energy cannot be created or destroyed makes it difficult NOT to believe in reincarnation.
Deja Vue is not proof or reincarnation it is proof of the non-linear theory of time being a mobius loop of coiled coils allowing us to see form one time to another!
