>>I believe strongly in reincarnation and karma.<<
reincarnation is when you come back as a flower, right?
reincarceration is when you come back as a living animal…………
karma is something I put on apples, sweet and sticky. (John Lennon used the instant variety)
There are so many schools of thought, and “evidence” to support many of them……..
one is that humans are hard-wired by nature to believe in a superior being, and an after-life as a means of protecting the species from self-destruction (the human species being among the only that is capable of such a thing)
So if you believe in an infinite and powerful being that can’t be bargained with, and who tasks you to do “the right thing” then you are more likely to do the right thing. So in essence, some science believes religion and a god are wired into us to “make us behave”.
Frankly, personally, there’s no one thing that suites me – I believe they are all wrong, and all right all at once. No one religion, or science, has the correct answer, the truth is in between, with a bit of each being correct.
(a simplistic example – you can’t know my cats as I know my cats, and sit back and believe it’s all by accident that they do what they do, and that Yawnie begs for human interaction, is quite emotional, and that Punkin strives to please, and Shadow knows he’s adorable and acts accordingly.
Too many mysteries to chalk it all up to chance, then again, humans are not capable of understanding or realizing the truth while alive.
