Reincarnation is when you drink a second Carnation instant breakfast...

Reincarnation exists if that is the path you desire to walk. I mean, that is if you want to be reincarnated into another world of preditor and prey. it may look good from a view who can watch a bird soar through the sky. But then neglect the fact that they have to scavenge for food and squabble with other animals. have you ever seena bird and squirrel get into a fight. I have. or even an elephant. Being poached by humans for ivory tusks or just to be caged for some circus amusement. Not cool. Or better yet, to be a lion. To one day have to battle to see if you can still be the leader of the tribe. And if you lose, than you wander the world alone more than likely going to starve to death because you need the tribe to help you hunt for food. And to be reincarnated as a bug, well, just imagine. The national geographic channel can explain enough.
In hinduism, they believe in reincarnation. But people like the buddha wanted people to escape that. To escape samsara(karma wheel of life and death). Where they go, they don't dwell on what they don't know. Only that which they do know.
I just noticed I did not clearly give you a concise answer. I for one believe in it if that is the path you choose. Gives a real logical answer to all of the other creatures that exist on this planet. But not so logical for a non believer. But that seems like a hell of it's own if you ask me. I won't even step on an ant for the sake of I respect life. Won't even spit on the earth. If you want to be reincarnated, then that seems what you desire. But I desire something else and walk a different path.
PEACE!

Reincarnation is a lie from the Devil. The Bible says that it is appointed once for a person to die and then the judgment (Hebrews 9:27).
I say that it's a lie from the Devil because I think that people who supposedly can remember past lives are under the influence of demonic spirits who feed them information from the past on a subconscious level so that the Devil can keep people away from being saved through faith in Jesus. It's just one of the evil one's crafty tricks to make sure that the Lake of Fire will be a crowded place when he is tossed in there at the end of this age.
1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons,
2 Corinthians 2:11 ....so that we would not be outwitted by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his designs.
Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God actually say, 'You shall not eat of any tree in the garden'?"
Did God really say that we only have one life and we had better turn to Jesus before it's over? You bet that He did!

I feel... , in fact i am almost sure that reincarnation is true, I don't know why...maybe because i feel that I lived much more than my present life, maybe that I know that my spirit is timeless...and sometimes when i meet someone and i feel that i met her or him before, than i feel that reincarnation must be true

Reincarnation is based on the immortality of the soul.
That's an idea the Bible does not teach.

i feel there is more evidence for reincarnation than many other religious beliefs
so much so that due to my study on the subject i have had to adopt this belief into my own belief system
when there are children describing people and places that they could not possibly know ... there has to be something in that

I'm hoping that reincarnation is true. There's a few things I want to do differently next time around.
Note to self: Next life pick rich parents.

Because some people keep asking over and over.
This question keeps coming back.
9 times associated with feelings,
1,568 times reincarnation alone.
Not bad.
Why don't you look it up first?

It doesn't exist unless you think that when our bodies decompose and the molecules that were formerly our body get used in plants and microorganisms as reincarnation.
