I've been looking into stories regarding reincarnation and there a re plenty of stories like the guy that suffered from claustrophobia and one day he was walking in a different part of town and sensed something went into an old building a discovered his old body had been buried alive he had been going to a doctor for his claustrophobia and was hypnotized while under he said his name was different and on the body they found was an ID with the name he told the doctor .
Another one is a kid that was in a car wreck where his sister died and he had not spoken for a few years and was seeing a doctor , One day the doctor showed him a book from his childhood asking the child if he liked books at that time the kid spoke and said I fix books my name is not so so my name is so and so, After work that day the doctor stopped by the village bookstore and asked to see who was fixing the books when he asked the guy about the name the kid told him the guy told no he died 12 years ago .
Now a couple things about these 2 stories stick out to me is both were reincarnated into the same area they died , Now the bi one that made me start thinking is the kid was born a day after the bookmaker died .
So with that said has anyone looked at birth rates after major wars or mass die off is there a birth boom in the area they died or are from ?
WW1 WW2 japan after the bombs etc ........ Interesting none the less

Not a shred of evidence exists to support reincarnation.
Reincarnation is as legitimate as flat earth and creationism.

You do know by your statement you include any and all religions or any type of afterlife .

In my last life I was a Puffer fish. Now I am a mouse. I think I used to like being a Puffer better. But I still talk to fish and I think they can understand me.
Mice can type on a keyboard, that is an improvement..
The doctrine of reincarnation has been circulating the globe for millennia; yet, not a shred of evidence exists to support it. Contrary to the claims of reincarnation researchers, memories of past lives, including knowledge of recondite things known only to specialist historians, do not support the doctrine of reincarnation (see the Case of Jasbir). Real memories of past lives - often referred to as "previous" lives by believers - are the result of a well-known phenomenon called "overshadowing" or, in extreme cases, "obsession" or "possession."
Overshadowing occurs when a discarnate personality, currently occupying a domain of consciousness close to the earth, "approaches" a psychically sensitive individual and impresses him or her with its thoughts, feelings, beliefs and memories. The individual will feel a sense of "ownership" over the memories and may interpret them as memories of a previous life - especially if the individual believes in reincarnation. This overshadowing phenomenon works both ways and the discarnate personality will have access to the individual's thoughts, feelings and memories and may, for its part, believe it has reincarnated in the body of its "host." By transference, the discarnate personality will impress - or reinforce - the host's mind with the conviction that he or she has lived a previous life on earth.

I had clear as day (what seemed like) memories of being a small child on a playground in a neighborhood playing with other kids. I also was speaking German. I heard noise and looked up just in time to see planes flying overhead, followed by bright lights, screaming, and a lot of heat. I woke up shaking and drenched in sweat..

Strictly speaking there is nothing much to refute die to the absence of any evidence reincarnation is real.

Disagree. There are people who have memories and knowledge that they didn't gather in this life, but that upon investigation the memories and knowledge turn out to be correct. Tons of stories easily googled and that have been featured on TV etc.
I"m not a believer in reincarnation.
But I do not discount the facts that are there.
There COULD be something to it.
(Although I hope not).

That's not evidence to support reincarnation.
And I find it very difficult to accept people have memories and knowledge of things they haven't experienced and don't know.

I already posted the Why Files episode above, but thanks for posting the interview with Dorothy. I don't think I have seen that one.
