The older I get the faster time go and I know one day I will die and we all will. I am scared of the unknown . And knowing how to deal with death is not easy at times. Is there some sort of life beyond this life. ? when the lights go out is that it.? or is there a after life . I feel there could be something just not sure what. I will find out one day until then I have a lot of living to do.
My post yesterday and part 1 made very good reading from the forum members different views .. so will see what more you have to say . I keep a very open mind myself . |

Doctor Ian Stevenson may have one of the strangest claims to fame. He’s possibly the first person in history to have provided proof of reincarnation.
If that sounds crazy, wait till you read the rest. Over the course of four decades, Stevenson meticulously researched and documented cases of children apparently being able to recall their previous lives. And we don’t mean he indulged in some kid’s make-believe fantasy of having been an emperor. We mean he recorded over 3,000 cases of children under the age of 5 who had very specific knowledge of the lives, loves, and deaths of people they couldn’t possibly have known about.
In one documented instance, a Sri Lankan toddler overheard the name of a town she’d never been to. Immediately afterwards, she told her mother she’d been accidentally drowned there by her mentally-handicapped brother, before describing the town in great detail. She also supplied details of the family she’d belonged to, including what they looked like, what their house was like, and what her name had been. Twenty-seven out of 30 of her wild claims later checked out. Neither the girl, nor her family, nor anyone she knew had any prior connection to this town or the dead child.
Things like this make me think there is something. |

"But how does reincarnation cope with population growth? You must have a lot of soulless people walking the earth."
... in my house there are many rooms so it say. And maybe it works like that we will only know when we die .

We have an increasing population. There is a mathematical problem with reincarnation. For it to work, you must have a (presumably) infinite number of souls, to make up for the differential between the amount of people dying and being "recycled" and the new bodies being born.
It sounds like a bit of a fudge to me.
Creative accountancy or a pyramid scheme on the part of the gods?  |
