I think that it is a possibility. The bible says nothing about it one way or another - it's free territory. I have seen things, children remembering what they shouldn't be able to remember. They have knowledge that shouldn't be available to them. That is the most amazing thing for me. It's not limited to children, adults will know things they that perhaps should not, as well, but I think that the children are the most fascinating.

There are many problems with the salvation-by works doctrine of reincarnation. First, there are many practical problems. For example:
1. We must ask, why does one get punished for something he or she cannot remember having done in a previous life?
2. If the purpose of karma is to rid humanity of its selfish desires, then why hasn't there been a noticeable improvement in human nature after all the millennia of reincarnations?
3. If reincarnation and the law of karma are so beneficial on a practical level, then how do advocates of this doctrine explain the immense and ever-worsening social and economic problems - including widespread poverty, starvation, disease, and horrible suffering - in India, where reincarnation has been systematically taught through out its history?
There are also many biblical problems with believing in reincarnation. For example, in 2 Corinthians 5:8 the apostle Paul states, "We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord." At death, the, the Christian immediately goes into the presence of the Lord, not into another body. In keeping with this. Luke 16:19-31 tells us that unbelievers at death go to a place of suffering, not into another body.
Further, Hebrews 9:27 assures us that "man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment." Each human being LIVES ONCE as a mortal on earth, DIES ONCE, and then FACES JUDGMENT. He does not have a second chance by reincarnating into another body.

i'm a lifelong believer in reincarnation, and that i bear in mind quite certainly one of my previous lives. And my memories instruct that reincarnation isn't virtually human beings, on account that i grow to be an animal in that existence.

i have explained experiences i have had at certain places and she said it never happened. we found out later it did happen EXACTLY as i had said it did.
for instance:
there is a house in my home town that my mom said i was never in. she never knew anyone who lived there. neither did my grandparents (mom's parents who live in that town). i told mom about a window above a door got broken. we went to the old owners granddaughter (who was in her 80s in the '70s) and she told us a story that was told to her by her grandparents about when they were children and how the window got broken.
mom just said, " oh " . and went about her business with a blank look on her face.

No, no evidence and all the personal testimony in the world so far has not uncovered one shred of evidence of past lives that was not in the public domain.
