I couldn't give an honest opinion on reincarnation. Sometimes you do get that "I've been here before..." feeling in different places.

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 appreciate and hate this debate. i like it because i appreciate debating. I hate it because this variety of tremendous number of human beings equate me to a Nazi or another terrible historic figure at the same time as they listen my opinion. Oh properly. right here is going. those days, once you bypass to a learn agency and ask them to finish a learn, you'd be requested what you want them to locate. they are going to then figure out some thanks to achieve that searching. for this reason about the in user-friendly words "learn" i trust presently is that which unearths evidence adverse to the corporation that funded it. that signifies that, attempt as they might, they merely couldn't locate some thing to help what that corporation needed them to locate. global warming is taking position. that is been studied and placed. you may argue the learn approaches that chanced in this till you're blue contained in the face, yet in my opinion, I settle for it. What i come across thrilling and what turns everybody remote from me is that there is not any longer one unmarried imperical piece of evidence linking human beings to global warming. Environmental communities were attempting to verify that link for decades now and it merely would not seem there. Now, ought to we proceed with efforts to end pollutants and protect power? certain! Polution is having different detrimental effects on our ecosystem. that's causing an improve in cancer and different ailments. Acid rain is killing many ecosystems and destroying historic monuments. yet I digress. My stand on the challenge is this: proceed on the direction for a "greener earth" and all that, yet do not do it from in the back of a global Warming flag. do exactly it because you've self belief that's the right component to do.

Yes, very much so.

I under went past-life regression hypnosis once. Someone was writing down the things I'd said. I apparently spoke another language I couldn't have possibly have known in this life. It was some form of Native American dialect. I don't know what tribe, but it wasn't something I knew, or was aware of saying, upon awakening.

I've also had dreams from past lives. In one, I was a man in period clothing of the time. I wasn't sure of what time until I researched what kind of gun I was holding. I narrowed it down to the late 1800's. I couldn't possibly have known about that gun in my waking life - I've never owned one or had any interest in them.

The theory of re-incarnation, when studied in full appears possible. If it is true then it is a fact of life, and whether you believe it or not it will happen. Just like death, it happens whether u belive in it or not.

Hello Zansmommy,

No! I don't believe in re-incarnation, however: I do believe in life after death.
