I truly believe in this. My youngest son is always saying do you remember when I was younger(He's just 5) and we were swimming in a river and a crocodile came,you looked different though Mum. Some put it down to a vivid imagination but he has such knowing in his eyes.
I have readmany books and seen many programs and there is quite alot of convincing evidence out there that does confirm in life after death.
so Yes I believe in reincarnation. How many others do?

As Physical re-incarnation exists in nature (Circle of Life), from one celled creatures right up to stars, then why shouldn't the mind or sole of people also be recycled...
When I was very young (a toddler) I had recurring dreams about being killed by soldiers - the basic gist being: bullets ripping through my chest, and falling to the ground in a wet field (like a paddy field), I can recall the dream vividly even now, almost 30 years later.
The bullets (in my dream) as they hit felt very hot and stung.
And at what must have been the point of death, there was a weird calm and peaceful sensation, and all sense of being an individual, dying alone, just left me.
And yes I saw "the light", or should I say, more accurately I was absorbed by it (became part of the light) - I did not see anyone else in the dream, other than the people I was with when we were shot - this dream made it difficult for me to fit in with "Mainstream Christianity"...

Yes Soul is Eternal. It does not die with the death of the body.
We are not this body, we are the Eternal soul.
After the death of this Body soul will take up another body just as it did this time.
In Bhagavad Gita It is clearly said by God..
"Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these kings; nor in the future shall any of us cease to be." 2.12
"As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change." 2.13
"That which pervades the entire body you should know to be indestructible. No one is able to destroy that imperishable soul." 2.17
"As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones." 2.22
Even if you look at Mathematical way - probability, If you can be born once, why do you say that the probability of being born again is 0? The probability of any thing happening once is never Zero

Not at all. That is the most outdated theory since before the time of Hinduism when men imagined that no souls can go beyond the air blanket. There are a billion stories of people who return to their villages, but not a single person from Africa to return to America.

I don't personally believe in it but I can totally understand how someone could justifiably make an argument for it...
In the laws of physics.....it says that energy cannot be created or destroyed...it can only be transfered from one object to another...right?
Well....Human beings (and all other living things) survive from the Energy that keeps us alive. You could call this "Energy" a soul. If this cannot be created or destroyed...logically it would be transfered to something else when a Human being dies.
I think that would definitly give you a decent debate even though I don't really think that for myself.

I used to believe in re-incarnation in a former life, but I don't now!
LOL

Not only is it possible it is inevitable.
But, perhaps not in the way you imagine!
I do not believe in spiritual reincarnation, as I'm pretty non religious, however, all matter remains, it just changes form.
So you die, get get burried, a bit of you decays and gets eaten by a worm, the worm is eaten by a bird, which poops in a farmers field and the barley growing there absorbs some of the molecules that originally came from you, the barley is used to make a baby rusk, and the baby rusk gets eaten by a tiny tot 6 thousand miles away. your molecular make up has just contributed to the development of another life!!
to me thats as close to reincarnation as we can hope for, but I like it, and it makes me smile to think that one day after my death bits of me could be spread all over the plant in things from birds to flowers, to clouds and raindrops, and even, unforunately, dog poo!

I personally believe in reincarnation. To me, the Creation is full of cycles. Everything changes from and comes around full cycle. Water cycle and hydrogen cycle are just two examples. To me, it just makes sense life would be the same.
Also, there are plenty of laws of Conservation. The law of conservation of matter. The law of conservation of energy. The law of conservation of water. What about the law of conservation of Life?
Besides, the oldest religions (Hinduism and many primitive religions) believe in Reincarnation. Just about all religions have had sects that believed in reincarnation. Judaism has a form of reincarnation in its kabbalah and its also mentioned a little in the Talmud. Many followers of Early Christianity believed in reincarnation.
The universality of this belief makes this something that needs consideration.
Anyone know the story of the man born blind in the New Testament? The apostles asked Jesus, "Who sinned, that this man was born blind. Him, or his parents?" How could the man have sinned if he was born blind. He must have sinned before he was born to be born blind. The apostles must have thought he had sinned in a previous life. Jesus didn't even rebuke the belief in reincarnation implied in this question.
Just my humble opinions...

Yes it is all true- I never cease to be amazed at people who don't believe in it but yet believe in something else which is just as unbeliveable like ......Man Utd winning the League in 2006/2007
