I showed you the definition of reincarnation i was referring to.  Yet you still tell me what i believe. You keep taking words out of my mouth and when i ask for evidence for your claims from my previous posts you completely ignore me.

I also believe in reincarnation, have a shitty life perhaps you'll have a better one next time around.



Here is the context in which you used reincarnation. This assumes a continuation in consciousness, a la an afterlife.

Hey, Mush- is your name supposed to be some sort of disclaimer?

Well, seeing as there's nothing in the biodegradability theory of organic matter which postulates that lifeforms can reincarnate into new lifeforms


Never said there was.


OK, so what about it convinces you that lifeforms can reincarnate into new lifeforms? Do you have any peer-reviewed studies you can link me to which support your (irrational) belief?



If I may add, it's the same convincing belief that believes one's consciousness could 'transfer' into a copy of one's body, like in our 'teleportation thread' :cool:


It's not the same at all..that teleportation thought experiment depends on a hypothetical teleportation machine which possesses the necessary technology to teleport human beings. As far as the thought experiment is concerned, this machine (and its advanced technology) is taken for granted, and is a given; the purpose of the thought experiment is to gain insights into the nature of teleportation (as opposed to gaining insights into the nature of how a hypothetical teleportation machine's mechanisms might function). My point is that, while the thought experiment seems a bit far-fetched (due to the hypothetical nature of the teleportation machine), it is still scientific in nature in that its purpose is to systematically make discoveries about the nature of teleportation.

Reincarnation is not a thought experiment, it is a mystical faith-based belief, and is not founded by any sort of scientific data ; thought experiments like the one mentioned above are used in science all the time, but there is nothing at all scientific about reincarnation.

It's one thing to simply enjoy a style of life that one enjoys, but it's another thing altogether to refer to another person's choice as "wrong" or to rationalize their behavior as being pathological or resulting from some sort of inadequacy or failing so as to create a sense of superiority or separation as yet another projection of a personal fear or control issue.
