Is reincarnation real?

Question

What makes you so sure that you havent already been reincarnated?

Answer 1

"I say this, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God."
"We shall not all sleep but we shall all be CHANGED"
"The dead will be raised incorruptible and this mortal must put on immortality"
In that sense I suppose so..
But if you mean will we come back to Earth as cats or dogs or goats, ect. No. The Bible says we will be with Jesus for eternity.

Answer 2

I think I've reincarnated plenty actually. I'm kind of hoping this will be the last go 'round though. I'm starting to get REALLY tired of the physical. I'd just like to stay in the spiritual dimension and rest for awhile (several millenia, not that time exists there).

I'd love to do a past life regression out of curiosity, but I also think that we're not supposed to remember so that we can focus all our attention on this one. We chose to reincarnate for a reason, to get all the experience we can from this life. Past lives emotional baggage would just gum up the works.

Answer 3

The process is real, believe it or not. People are reincarnated to different things after they die. And that's why life goes on on earth. There's no ending no matter what scientist or whatever says. Even if the prediction of earth is to be extinct of lifeforms... there will be species reincarnated from us who died, into the new species. So the reincarnation is real!!!

Answer 4

I believe in reincarnation and feel that I've probably been here before. I don't know if I will come back here again or go elsewhere. It doesn't really matter to me. I was were I needed to be and I am where I need to be at this moment. That's the main thing of importance to me.

Answer 5

Reincarnation is real, of that I have no doubt whatsoever. I was born with memories of my most recent life (and death). As Voltaire said, "The doctrine of metempsychosis is, above all, neither absurd nor useless. It is not more surprising to be born twice than once; everything in nature is resurrection."

P.S. The concept of a God who allows people to burn eternally in hell after one lifetime is one that is not supported by any evidence whatsoever but it is contained in some unprovable ancient writings carved on stones by primitive men who thought God was an ogre; it is apparently a philosophy consisting merely of ideas that people have formulated. A philosophy of this kind could easily be put together by any person. In fact, an ordinary person could formulate several of these philosophies. Moreover, one would not need to possess any knowledge or spend any time in order to do this; a short time would be quite enough to formulate a whole philosophical system of "beliefs unsupported by evidence". ... to paraphrase the post above mine.

Answer 7

Scientifically reincarnation is allot more likely than the heaven / hell thing. There seems to be some sort of link between evolution and reincarnation.

Answer 8

I have trouble believing in free floating spirits.

I believe I am the continued encarnation of all the people in my family lineage.

Isn't that amazing enough?

But does your spirit lift out of your body when you die and occupy something that's being born right at that moment? Doesn't make sense. For one thing it implies the existence some deity... and why would any deity want to deny new life forms their own individuality?

To me reincarnation is just another human response to the fear of dying.

Answer 9

Didn't you ask this same question about 100 years ago? Just joking, I believe reincarnation IS real.

Answer 10

I believe in reincarnation.

Answer 11

I believe that reincarnation is real. My father once told me that his brother (as a small child) told him while looking at his own hand said "my hand used to be bigger".....???
