I am doing a research in some spiritual studies because of something that happen to me and even though i am a very religious Christian, i am quite open to the idea of reincarnation and the new age religion like " the Scientology" stuffs.
I am reading some stuffs on the net about the " 2012 ascensions" and also "near death experiences" NDE or OBE ( out of body experiences) where the soul actually experiences some extra ordinary phenomenon and still was able to tell others.
Well, I want to know whether some mylotters are spiritual too and what are your views?

The thing that bothers me about reincarnation is if it is a fact, why does the population keep increasing? Are there an infinite number of souls waiting to be born for the first time or are we part of a universal population that is reborn on one planet and then another?
I'm open to the idea but it doesn't make much sense--however, are those memories people claim to have of previous lives real, made up and believed or are our bodies inhabited by more than one soul sometimes?
I'm a Christian but as I don't know the mind of God or everything that He does or has planned, I think we should be curious in our spiritual journey and open to new ideas.

All of us are the extract of our progenitors who had brought us forth into this world. They had reproduced a generation because they wanted to go and live in them. These child prodigies too were the extract of their ancestors. They were living in him. Since the ancestors of these child prodigies had the seeds of the finest fruit, which were planted in the finest soil, they brought forth these remarkable children. It is the consecrated element of those ancestors speaking through the mouth of these children. Therefore, I am not surprised.
Jesus Christ himself was a child prodigy. At the age of twelve he was found in the temple discussing scriptures. He too was the finest extract of those who had suffered in captivity, fermented in the desert and finally brought him forth by recalling him because they were asking for a Messiah.
It is not reincarnation but it is resurrection.

I don't beleive those maya predictions of the end of the world in 2012 crap, that's just storeisies for lil babies.
You said you are very religious christian, well normally you christians, like us muslims & Jews, believe in reincarnation, hell & heaven, punishment & . It's one of the basis of those religions, keep your faith up substance, it's all in god's will, only him knows when the end of the world.
For me personally, i don't believe those predictions at all, coz what will happen the next second is, no doubt, out of our hand, it's that simple.

Maybe it depends on part what you feel attracted to and what you belive and what you have read too. For me, no. I may sound over pragmatic,but i prefer to have my worries in this life and I dont belive in heaven or hell nor god or the devil!. It appears that we will be living a life of delusion the moment we forget the present life and start thinking and focuing on the after life ! . Personal choice .

I do believe in reincarnation.
energy cannot be created or destroyed, it just changes form.
I have memories that don't belong in this day and age, and are as real to me as early memories of this life.
I'm not at all open to scientology though, and don't see any significance to the idea of 2012 being significant.

I don't believe in reincarnation. I'm also a very religious Christian. I've read about some NDE and OBE cases and the various scientific explanations for them. Some of them I've found very interesting, but I haven't been convinced of anything. Partially because I know that the mind is a very powerful thing and it can play complicated and convincing games. Not everything people claim to experience is totally real.
I believe that when we die, we depart. No hanging around, no being re-born, and none of the like. I don't know everything of course, and I don't claim to. I believe what I believe because of my faith in God.

I don't believe in reincarnation because it has no basis in the Bible. If you want to know the truth you only have to research the Bible. It contains everything you want to know about spirituality. For me, Bible is enough for spiritual studies. If you are a religious Christian, you don't have to research other religions for it will just confuse you.Set your focus to the truth.

I'm not sure what to believe i need to see it to feel it to know it , this spiritual , ghostly and other things witch i only heard and don't saw anything of it in real i really cant believe it , so goes for reincarnation . I'm more of Hand to touch , eye to see person .
So reincarnation there is no proof for existance but the opposite too so there is possibility .
