More plausible than heaven/hell. While theres never been any proof of it presented, I don't see how it could be proved even if true. All you will ever have is people saying yeah I remember blah blah we will never know if they are nuts, lieing or reincarnated. There's certainly nothing to preclude it as a possibility.

Conclusion, maybe, maybe not.

Apparently I was a Fortune Teller in my past life.

I earned my living as a fortune-teller on the fairs and I was also competent in numerology. The pseudonym I used was "Eleona Baltimor". I was born in the city of Ankara around year 1884. I lived in a cosy caravan which I inherited from my mother and although after I was two years old never saw my father again, I had an interesting and comfortable life, was devoted to fortune-telling and never experienced any hardship in money.

The atoms making up the cells in my body may well have made up something else's body in the past. Physics and chemistry explains how we recycle.

Do the smallest particles making my cells carry any aspect of my consciousness? nobody knows....but if they do then it could be argued that is in some way reincarnation.

I was ing through the library in December 2012 and came up with a bag full of esoterica that I thought I'd sell to one of the hippy, second hand book shops on the High Street.

Only I reckoned without Glastonbury logic.

First shop I went to the woman behind the counter said I needed to speak to the manager but that she was out today. Could I come back on Saturday?

Busy then, sorry, says I, how about next week?

The woman looked behind her, at the ceiling before looking at me, smiling and she said:

"I'm not too sure what's happening next week. The world's supposed to end on Friday so we haven't done a rota."

I could best be described as atheist. I am not convinced by the traditional _iew some have of reincarnation. My scientific background leaves me questioning everything and consciously trying not to close the door on anything because almost all major scientific breakthrough or advance has gone against the mainstream science of its day.

I envy the peace of mind you must have from being certain, my mind is never at peace because the only thing I'm certain of is that I know so little.

"Complete codswallop. Scientific evidence needed, if not then nah thanks!"

There's an interesting concept right there, because if one considers something like the statement “Science is the only way to really know truth.” How could you prove that statement by science? It is actually self-refuting because there is no scientific test you could use to prove that it is true! Science cannot prove logic to be true because it assumes and requires logic in order for it to work.

Personally I like the fact that matter is recycled , I have no issue knowing that the atoms of my body and mind have once hosted life elsewhere and their likely origin is a nuclear furnace.

That these fundamental particles may hold a sentient memory I can see no evidence for and a lot against thus conclude a very low plausibility rating

Although I understand an atom could store information at the binary level maybe even a byte to stretch that to say a single one could hold a memory or essence of being I feel is beyond possibility xxx

More recycled than reincarnated I would say!

I will agree that there could be some kind of residual effect, and it is obvious that of 'echoes of the past' can be transmitted down the ages genetically. What the limit of that is I do not know - familial traits, patterns, behaviours (such as addiction) as well as physical features and hereditary medical conditions. There could be more.

But 'I was once a chamber maid to Henry VIII'? Nah.

this..

4 British scientists albeit in the USA have just been awarded the nobel peace prize for Physics and Chemistry, the chemistry one is to do with micro 'machines' and technology 1000 times smaller than the diameter of a human hair..

keeping an open mind about every aspect of life is probably not easy, but we know little about the deep oceans of this planet we live on and we know less about our own brains than that..

I remember as a young teenager going to a talk by a guy names krishnamurti at Brockwood park in Surrey with my Dad . I wasn't in the slightest bit interested , but thought why not .

Anyway , this guy had a certain aura about him , and I listened thinking yeah he makes a lot of sense . Then this guy raises his hand and asked if there was such a thing as reincarnation , how come he didn't remember any past lives , and what proof was there . Krishnamurti said if you are ready to know , you will , and no one can persuade or convince you otherwise . Very simple answer , and one I always remember .

Now this happened some 42 years ago , and there were about 3,000 people there and the buzz around us all was what kind of answer was that ? We were all looking for answers , and he effectively told us that if we didn't have the answer we weren't ready . He didn't say there was , and didn't say there wasn't , just that we would know when we were ready .

I read a lot and still do on the subject , and still don't know for sure . But I certainly lean toward a theosophical belief system . Can I convince anyone that my beliefs are right ? No . Can anyone convince me that I am wrong ? No . Is there any proof ( scientific or otherwise ) No .

So I will carry on trying to understand what I believe to be the case , but I certainly won't be trying to convince anyone else that I am right .

I think there is something in it.

I've witnessed several paranormal/unexplained things.

I once watched my friend being regressed. He described himself as a British soldier in world war 2 and described a combat situation he was in and the last thing he described was a grenade landing at his feet and then darkness. He gave his rank and service number.

We researched this, his rank was wrong, his service number was right. And indeed that person died in combat.

Some years later, I was around a friends house chatting (different friend) and we got onto this subject and I described the above to her, she was sceptical, and jokingly called her little two year old boy who was playing in the adjacent room through to us, and asked him

"Who were you before you were born?"

The child looked her dead in the eye and replied

"Why would you want to know that Lucy? You shouldn't ask questions like that" turned on his heels and went back to playing.

We didn't know what to do with ourselves.

True story - one of the spookiest moments ever!

You have seen zero evidence to preclude or disprove reincarnation yet your convinced of it - that's a bigger problem. We call it sheep mentality. An intelligent person can no more deny reincarnation than he can accept it. He keeps an open mind.

Presumably you think that the pyramids were built by aliens likewise the Aztec strongholds with their inter linked rounded joints because no one can fully explain how they were done?

Again just because one person can't explain it doesn't mean it's unexplained.

I don't personally believe in it.

But, we've been to Thailand on holiday, which is mostly Buddhist, and therefore the people generally believe in re-incarnation.

Part of the belief in re-incarnation gives them a wider respect to animals and also a warmer, friendlier outlook than many westerners possess.

So although a non-believer myself, I like the concept and outlook it gives.

Fact of the matter is this country..this government beleuved in it all as proven by what I wss told at school

"I don't personally believe in it.

But, we've been to Thailand on holiday, which is mostly Buddhist, and therefore the people generally believe in re-incarnation.

Part of the belief in re-incarnation gives them a wider respect to animals and also a warmer, friendlier outlook than many westerners possess.

So although a non-believer myself, I like the concept and outlook it gives."

Yeah , I'd agree with this

"The atoms making up the cells in my body may well have made up something else's body in the past. Physics and chemistry explains how we recycle.

Do the smallest particles making my cells carry any aspect of my consciousness? nobody knows....but if they do then it could be argued that is in some way reincarnation.

It's a stretch, but no one actually knows.

More recycled than reincarnated I would say!

I will agree that there could be some kind of residual effect, and it is obvious that of 'echoes of the past' can be transmitted down the ages genetically. What the limit of that is I do not know - familial traits, patterns, behaviours (such as addiction) as well as physical features and hereditary medical conditions. There could be more.

But 'I was once a chamber maid to Henry VIII'? Nah."

Different eastern belief systems that believe in reincarnation have differing definitions of reincarnation. Some see it much closer to our description of recycling. They believed in this 'recycling' long before science proved it.

"Mans inability to cope with mortality I'm afraid."

I agree totally. We have religion for the same reason.

This is something I often debate with my mum over as she believes that we all have reincarnation and that each life is a test and is there to teach us something and on your very last life you will have the perfect life. I don't believe in a perfect life as I think we as humans are programmed to fuck up perfect but as my sister died aged 17 I think it gives my mum something to focus on.

Never in the history of human existence has life after death (oxymoron?) ever been proven or any person ever 'come back' from death (brain and body death) to tell us all about it.

It wouldn't be death if anyone did come back would it?
