    LOL!

    Helen Wambach Ph. D. found that we reincarnated all over the spectrum of race, religion, sex, economic standing and position in society.

    Near death experiencer Christian Andreason confirms that general tendency in the reincarnation cycle:

    If you mean that the star would be Above Alpha. No, I don't think so. AA is a guy who is very well read on these subjects and enjoys the ancient and honored art of leg pulling. You have to remember that Tom Clancy's extensive background in the military and military intelligence consisted of being an insurance salesman after being cashiered from the ROTC in college because his eyes were so bad and Lee Child was a television producer before he created Jack Reacher and is not even American born, let alone a graduate of West Point. (The strange part is that Ian Fleming, whose Bond books are always considered impossible and misinformed fantasy, WAS a real spy, or actually Spymaster, in WWII, who knew Kim Philby and may have actually dealt with Stalin's SMERSH for real, go figure.)

    AA became tired of us, or the board, or got a job or found a gf, who knows. He was entertaining and I miss him but I think either of those things is a lot better for someone than us.

    Wow!!!!!
    I didn't know about this background for any of those writers........ (except for what you wrote about Ian Fleming).......
    This is very encouraging information indeed! I sure do hope that AA is alive and well and having a great laugh as he pops in anonymously on occasion to check on some of the discussions that he got started........

    True... but could you have been a woman in some of your past lives?

    Could you have been members of North American First Nations tribes in some of those other past lives that you might somehow perceive?

    Could you have been Black or Chinese in other of those past lives that you might somehow view?

    Or.... has a possible clue been given for all the members of politicalforum that our old buddy is very, extremely busy lately and involved in something so huge that he can't even take the risk to pop over here to say Hi to us?!

    Not sure if I was ever another race, but just in case when they hand out reparations I will be in line, you know, just in case.

    So if I have no birthmarks, does that mean this is my first life?

    While I find stories of past lives to be fascinating, I'm not convinced. Past life memories under hypnosis fall under the same rubric as repressed memories, i.e., indistinguishable from created memories.

    "Far more studies exist that show the concept of repressing memories is false. For example, one study published in the journal Psychological Science showed that women who had reported having repressed memories were 40 percent more likely to remember things that never happened (the study involved recalling groups of words).

    The American Medical Association has taken the stance that repressed memories are of “uncertain authenticity.” The American Psychiatric Association states that one cannot possibly distinguish between a “memory” that actually happened and one that did not. The British Psychological Society has stated that when [led] or pressured by a therapist, patients can “recover” memories that never happened. The Australian Psychological Association also believes that recovered memories cannot be authenticated. There is even a False Memory Syndrome Foundation dedicated solely to advocating that recovered memories of incest are fake."

    It doesn't matter whether you believe in reincarnation or not. You're a participant. :)

    You are you, and you've always been you--since YOU were born. But you're right, it isn't the physical person whose reincarnated, it's your soul--which is NOT a separate thing, but is actually the REAL you. Every reincarnation is a different experience--for a reason. But your soul is altered by every reincarnational experience, and portions of a given incarnation can & often is, carried into a new life. For example, skills in one life can be carried forward into another life, fully developed. Examples are extremely young, accomplished musicians, singers, artists, etc.

    Stormtroopers may or may not have been black or Jewish in a previous life (or lives), but the hatred they felt toward others for senseless reasons, was probably a characteristic they brought with them into this life from a previous one. I am convinced, that anyone who hates a group of people for senseless reasons will be required to reincarnate as a member of the group they hate, as part of their soul's education. It's not a punishment, but an opportunity to see the world from the eyes of those they formerly hated, and learn from that experience.

    Many of us share that experience, in many conflicts, remembered & forgotten. I do myself. :(

    While it is true that one can reincarnate into the same family left upon death, it is not required. I know of one person who has been able to identify six previous lives in some detail, but none were involved with the same family. I currently know of five previous personal lives, but only one with a name. In both our cases, there are talents, skills, interests, or opinions held in previous lives that are strong in our current one. But these are not genetically transferred. They are carried by the spirit or soul--which is a form of conscious living energy--not matter.

    Yes. I remember five past lives personally--two as a female & three as a male.

    Reincarnation is NOT dependent upon genetics. It's totally independent from them. Though we get caught up in the reality of our physical selves & world around us, the real us is not physical at all. It's spiritual, which is a form of conscious living energy without any physical material at all. It resides in an alternate dimension of reality, but is capable of travel from that reality into this physical one, at will--which explains how incarnation is possible. In the spirit world where we all return after our physical bodies die, there is no atomic material. Everything there is energy. Physical matter cannot exist there. The energy would vaporize anything material instantly. Near Death Experiencers all agree on this point. Your comment that proving reincarnation is like trying to prove/disprove God, is overly pessimistic. The truth is, there's a lot of information & evidence out there for anyone interested in the topic. More than enough to establish the verity of life after death & reincarnation. :)
