Declassified Pentagon report suggests that reincarnation really exists

[UM-Bot]

The report, which was written back in 1983, makes the bold assertion that 'consciousness never dies'.

No consciousness never dies, but what would be the point of reincarnation if you don't learn anything the first time.Then you come back and make the same mistakes over and over again and don't learn anything.

Long before genetic predisposition was discovered negating it.

Back up your statement with proof.......

Interesting topic.  Not sure why the Pentagon would need to study this….it shows that tax payer money is just grossly wasted by the American government.  Having said that, plenty of people do claim to remember past lives.  How much truth there is to it, IDK.

If reincarnation is a thing,i wonder if it's voluntary.if so i don't think I'll bother.

I hope that in my past life I lived in the Doggerland.

I think I would give it another run…that is unless I would not have it at least as good this time around.  If I had it any worse, that would not be good.

I wonder if people who die shortly after birth or people with tortured existences ,rage at the manager demanding a refund .

This is simply absurd. Let's see the research that should correspond to this.

I once dreamed that I had been reincarnated.

I used to be a deck of playing cards. I had fifty-six distinct personalities. The smartest one was the Jack of Spades.

I do not remember much about being that deck, except that the box we were kept in was far too tight.

I died because I was punctured by a bullet. Shot, I tell you. The trauma killed me. Unfortunately I had already been taken out of the box, so it must have survived, not being shot itself? Maybe it is still laying around somewhere? Perchance with another deck inside it? Poor deck.

Anyway, after being shot I was reincarnated as a tea cup. I was accompanied by a nice saucer that never complained about all the spilled tea onto it. But damn, that tea got far too many spoons and lumps of sugar into it.

Anyway, I died again when whomever dropped me and I shattered into pieces on the floor.

Then the cat climbed onto my face and I woke up.

I do not know anything else. I did not use drugs! Never have.

I can remember having strange images in my head as a small child. I was in a strange dark building with red lights. No windows or anything noticeable, just huge shaped surfaces. I also remember always feeling like everything was upside down, like I had been ripped out of somewhere and had to get used to something completely new. Well, kids have vivid imaginations, and my brain was probably just messing something up. Still, I find the reincarnation theory quite interesting.

How about evidence?  Plenty of that.

Foetus memories! Remarkable!

I cannot remember being in the womb. Nor being born. I suspect that I slept when I was born.

I must have had memories of being manhandled after being born, but I appear to have forgotten those.

I wonder how often the CIA makes up reports and puts old dates on them then "declassifies" them just as a social experiment?

[papageorge1]

As a believer myself that consciousness is fundamental and never dies and in reincarnation it doesn’t surprise me that some government experimentation would suggest that. 
 

The slow tide just in my lifetime is moving that way. Materialist science dominated more last century..

The general understanding is the soul develops further each lifetime and subtlety influences the next lifetime.

Older souls will be more spiritual. Younger souls will get more attached to  the physical things.

What does genetic predisposition negate here?

Stories aren't "evidence".

Over half of your personality is genetically wired.

Which begs the question why someone would be reincarnated to be a sociopath or rapist? Which are genetic.

Reincarnation theory certainly doesn’t exclude the effects of heredity and environment being pertinent.

So mayflies reincarnate every day .....?

Remember, humans are not special.  We're just a particularly stupid type of ape.   If we do it so does everything else.

Reincarnation is just dumb.

Evidence, the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition could be true or valid.  People knowing details they can't possibly know, a couple cases from rural India involving birthmarks that coincide with wounds suffered at death by the person they claim to have been.  This is evidence but not proof.

Why do people die en masse in natural disasters?  Because no single life is the be all and end all.  Reincarnation, the great equalizer.  I don't have any proof but I lean that direction personally. 

edit; It's even possible there is only one soul living every life simultaneously.

Confirmation Bias.
