Reincarnation

[nothingbutyou]

I'm very afraid of reincarnation. I just saw a girl on TikTok who has muscular dystrophy, she can't do anything on her own, including moving or eating, and her parents are her caregivers. What will happen to this poor girl if her parents die? I blame the world we live in because it prohibits and criminalizes euthanasia. And more importantly, what if I'm born again as a girl like this? That would be unbearable hell… Do you know of any scientific evidence against reincarnation?

It's pretty much scientifically impossible to prove or disprove reincarnation because it's not observable. The only thing we can observe is that the person dies and their body is destroyed; we can't know if the consciousness moves somewhere else or if it is destroyed, only that it ceases to be present there.

Although, if it helps, you're way more likely to be born a millionaire than be born with MD.

I fear reincarnation too. I don't want to start this shit again and again. But I believe in reincarnation. You can find some videos from children talking about their past lives and it convices me it's real. I don't fear death but being reincarnated is what bothers me the most with suicide. But we'll all die one day, so if reincarnation is real, we will all reincarnate. The more I'm aging, the more I think life is just a scam and a gamble.

You may have heard of this almost ancient Creepypasta: The Egg. A man dies and speaks with God for a short time, and he is told that this man is God, as well as the man that killed him, as well as the man's wife. This is all just him, running through a cycle of returning and living life alongside his previous lives. I'm not sure if this is articulated right.
That's how I like to sometimes look at the concept of reincarnation, or of consciousness in general. We each are the universe (or whatever you call God), experiencing itself, through itself, alongside itself.

Also, there isn't really anything that suggests reincarnation is strictly linear. So not only could you reincarnate as anyone, but as anyone at any point in time.

I am convinced of reincarnation too but after reading NDE i do think some limbo state exists before you reincarnate and it may or may not last a long time. But reincarnation doesn't sound too bad, we are in a lot of a worse headspace than the average person so it seems like an upgrade all things considered.

A human body is so extremely disgusting, I never ever want to be incarcerated in such a thing again! And other animals are getting persecuted and tortured by the human parasites. I want to leave this horrible world behind for good and finally be at peace and reunited with my loved ones.

Well whether you reincarnate or not may not be in your control. Some theories say too escape the reincarnation cycle you have too run away from the light even though mainstream religions telling you too follow the light but instead run into the darkness. But all these things are just theories based off NDE's and its nothing concrete.

The thing about humanity is true, it got especially bad after the industrial revolution.

So my 2 cents to this whole idea is simply:

What stops you of simply doing it again?

If you CTB and then reincarnate and realize your new existence hasn't improved there's no rule saying it's not a cycle you could just take a spin again no?

Most believe that your consent is needed for you to reincarnate, and that possibly certain beings might try to trick you into giving your consent, because without it they can't force you to do it.
I'm in luck that I despise the god of mainstream religions anyway and want nothing to do with him - so the darkness it is for me.

reincarnation is scary to me too, but only if it's completely random

Yup, give me a good-looking body, a wealthy family, preferably somewhere in Switzerland, and I might take another shot at life - if not, please don't bother me with this earthly stuff anymore.
