A few thoughts on reincarnation |
Wednesday, November 18th, 2015 07:52:45 GMT |
There's a variety of reasons why I don't like the thought of reincarnating.
But, one of the top reasons is because of worldwide poverty. According to this page (which I so often link to), at least 80% of humanity lives on less than $10 a day. (Or, in other words, less than about $3650 per year.)
So, that might mean the odds of being reborn into wealth, or even just acceptable comfort, might be rather slim.
But even if poverty didn't exist, an eternal heavenly afterlife would still sound much better to me than reincarnation. (Even though I'm agnostic.)
If you truly believe you're going to have to come back to this world, and be reborn as who knows what, that's a pretty strong incentive to try to make the world a better, fairer place for everyone - not just certain privileged groups.
I wonder if sincere reincarnation believers tend to be more kind, caring, fair, and altruistic than the average person?
100 days of free videos from psychic medium John Edward |

John Edward is a well-known psychic medium.
Of course, I don't know for sure if he or any other psychic medium is truly communicating with the dead. But, regardless, he's one of my favorite psychics, and I find his books, shows, etc. quite interesting.
Recently, I read in his official email newsletter that starting June 1st, 2015, he will be releasing a free video each day for 100 days.
You can sign up to see them at the following page from JohnEdward.net:
Here's an old newsletter of his where he wrote a bit about astrology:
One thing I find particularly neat about John Edward is that he's actually interested in astrology.
