Yes, I believe in it! I was raised Christian and while most Christians don't believe in it, the original translation of "You must be born again" is " You must be born again and again" (reincarnation). Interesting, huh?
By the way, an interesting side note... my son first learned to speak in SPANISH. We are not hispanic nor do we have spanish toys, tv shows (we didn't watch Dora or Sesame Street), friends, family, etc. I swear I am not making this up, my Catholic mother thought it was crazy. His first words were all Spanish words and we were astounded. I was told he was hispanic in his last incarnation. Later, he spoke English (what we were trying to teach him!!) and doesn't speak Spanish anymore except on occasion, he still uses the spanish word for "water" when asking for water (agua).

Yes, I believe in reincarnation. However, I'm not a Christian I am a Hindu.
No, reincarnation is not strictly against Christianity, it just depends on which sect/denomination of Christianity you belong to. I have met many Christians that believe in reincarnation. I am not sure what sect/denomination they were a part of, but I know that there are Christians that believe in it.

I believe in reincarnation. I think you should research the changes made to the Christian bible. It is my understanding that it was once in the bible but was taken out because it offended some royalty. The bible has been changed many times to meet the needs of the people in power. Some Christians that I know believe in reincarnation some don't.You will find open minded people and close minded people in every religion

Yes leedo2502,I very much believe in reincarnation and no! it is not against christianity although some christians have not studied their bible enough to know that Jesus tought his deciples about it. I thought,in his answer" Spike is my " gave a very good factual answer. Proof: Matthew 17:10-13 Elias reincarnated as john the baptist I Know that I lived before, I know that I am the life of this body and after it is gone I will continue to live on some level of awareness. "spike is my" never gave references but most of spike's answers are proveable history.

Reincarnation is very real and believe it or not we are all part of this. The only reason Christians don't want to believe is because it will discredit the teachings of the bible. But you keep an open mind and think about it, you'll find that it's real alright and makes all the sense of our being.

Reincarnation is against Christianity....... Christians beleive that your next life is in heaven...... I'm a Christian and that's what I beleive.... however, it's okay to be a Christian and have some beleifs differant than others.....

I believe in reincarnation. I also believe in transmigration of the soul, which means that it is possible to reincarnate as a human in countries/cultures all around the world. By the law of averages, we have all been a Chinesse farmer at one time or another, been trillions of them throughout history.

I hope that there is such a thing as reincarnation. I also hope that I have been good enough in this life that next time I can come back as the member of an intelligent species

No it's not against Christianity. It's certainly against mainstream Christianity thought. You will never find two Christians with exactly the same beliefs, so it's okay to have somewhat different beliefs and still be a Christian.
