i'm obsessed with this thought. i don't ever want to be born again into this world. i am a Catholic (I try to be) so I don't believe in reincarnation but this really scares me. Not the judgement day but when my time comes I want to be done with life here for good.
what do you think about reincarnation, etc...
thanks

The most important concept about reincarnation is that you do it from one moment to the next. Your new life starts in this moment. Why concern yourself with what might happen in the future?

Its an unproven premise. The surveys taken on belief, etc. have come up 65% against it and only 35% for it. Relax you are in the majority!
That which we think too hard about, will manifest. Relax and let this life unfold to its best response. Then live in the afterlife (another unproven theory) to the best of your abilities. In this way, you would not be invited to be the reincarnated.

Reincarnation is a false doctrine and contradicts everything that is in the Bible. It is a doctrine that has no salvation. There is no salvation in being born over and over and over again. This idea of being reborn until you are perfect and then being absorbed back into the Cosmic is ridiculous and makes life on earth seem pointless. Do not be afraid of false doctrines---ignore them. I am not Catholic and I have some disagreements with Catholicism, but Catholicism does have it right concerning heaven and eternal life with Christ.

The Bible makes it very clear that we only pass through this life once, and we do not return time after time. God puts us on earth for only a brief period of time, and then we enter eternity—either in heaven with God or else separated from Him in what the Bible calls hell. The Bible says, "Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment" (Hebrews 9:27).
Why is this important? For one thing, it means that our life right now is serious, because what we do with God now will determine our eternal destiny. We will not have a second chance; as the Bible says, "Now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2).
One reason some religions believe that we will return to this earth time after time is because they believe one life won't be long enough for us to purify ourselves from sin. But the Bible teaches that no matter how much time we have, we can never wash away our sins. Only God can do this—and this is what He made possible by sending His Son into the world to be our Savior. Christ did for us what we could never do for ourselves, and when we commit ourselves to Him, all our sins are forgiven.
I urge you to put your faith in Christ alone for your salvation. Then thank Him that when you die you will go to be with Him through all eternity. Christ alone is our hope of salvation, and I pray He may become your hope as well.

I think you will be born again into this world unless you find some way to learn the lessons you are supposed to in this life and release any karmic debt. Try some kundalini yoga, this may get you off to a good start.

Reincarnation is a Truth and if your book denies it, Truth does not change
After all SUN did not start circling round the earth and earth did not become flat
Our Soul needs innumerable lessons, of pain and pleasure, hate and love, rich and poverty, wisdom and idiocy and one birth is not enough for this
So when we die, we leave the physical body, leave the gross memories and take our lessons and learnings with us in subtle form and find a new body
This continues till we become total Divine and are ready to merge into the God

Hebrews, chapter 9 verse 27
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
There is no reincarnation as this verse gfrom God's Word proves.

i have changed my mind slightly on this topic recently
i feel that some may come back .. but that would be a choice and not mandatory ( from the things i have heard )
in spirit you have free will and i dont believe you are forced to do something that you disagree with
there are some wonderful stories about reincarnation that is making me think , some of them are true

reincarnation is not a fact. The Bible says that it is appointed unto man Once to die. When you die you will either be with Jesus or if you rejected Him then you will Not be with Him and will ultimately go to Hell. If you die before his return you will be done with life here for good until you are with HIM
