Even someone who believes in reincarnation couldn’t hope for this sort of cosmic luck.

Billy Campbell, the 4-year-old son of Australian TV host David Campbell, tells his parents he has the soul of philanthropist and beloved global figure Princess Diana.

Billy, who talks of being a princess “before the sirens came” was born 18 years after Di’s fatal car accident in 1997.

I think that was pretty much debunked.

Thanks for the ping, I would have missed this article otherwise.

IF reincarnation exists, I do not want to come back.

One of the authors who has written about this has speculated that we might wind up in a slice of time and space that is best suited to the needs and desires of our ideals - and that could be somewhere long in what we currently perceive as the past. Someone who has come to love and aspire toward art or music might wind up in a time of great painters or musicians; someone whose interests are more spiritual might be born again into a past where they are in contact with a great religious teacher.

Everyone seems to think that if reincarnation were true, they’d wind up at a point shortly after they left off in time...

That's what I said, but they sent me back anyway.

That’s an important point. The fleshly man, with it’s attendant ego, isn’t the soul. John Doe as you know him on Earth is not going to exist again. What is essential will go on, and probably wouldn’t want to be forever stuck in the old John Doe narrowness.

Yes. I figure that the ‘fleshly man’ is merely the equipment issued to the ‘eternal soul’... for this gig.

"Everyone"... I hadn't thought about "when" but know I don't want to return, ever again, no matter the time or circumstances.

Would we have a choice?

It could be except for the fact that there was no way for my said person to know of the info said person remembered.

If you think about what I am saying and who would shut down a study and who might be hidden behind said studies through the years you can get my point. The whole study wasn’t shut down..just the study on said individual.

But...perhaps there is a logical way said person knew these things. I want to be clear to anyone reading...I was NEVER told the details but they were specific things. Not general affinity for a particular subject.

I am a huge skeptic of everything and always want some kind of proof. This story leads me to think reincarnation may be possible

‘whenever someone asks me the baited question, ‘Are you a Christian?”’

If you call that a “baited question”, that kind of says a lot in itself, doesn’t it?

The reason I asked if you are a Christian is because, if you aren’t, then there is really no point in talking to you about what the Bible says about demons. That’s all. You kind of have to believe in the fundamentals of the faith before you delve into the more esoteric matters.

The man is the soul. The body dies, then the soul goes to judgement.

We can read all about the judgement in a good bit of detail in Revelation, and there is no outcome of it that offers the possibility of reincarnation. There’s only damnation or resurrection.

I joke that IF there is reincarnation, I want to come back as an attorney and marry an auto mechanic - if I am female.

If male come back as an auto mechanic and marry........you get the idea.

Two areas in life where you can get ripped off.

I think it may be possible, too. But I’m not sure how it would work out; and I think that the simplistic notion that many have that we die, and are reborn in another earthly existence ad infinitum - or until we wear out the experience that this old Earth can give - may be just a dumbed-down way that our limited understanding has of grasping a much more complex ‘system’.

I personally think we are all essentially immortal; and there is no end to finding ourselves in new conditions with new opportunities for growth and expansion. I can’t even think that ‘heaven’ would be a static, aimless existence, or that God would limit his creation to that. If it’s true that ‘as above, so below’ it seems there has to continue to be growth and expansion, in some manner.

And, if everything is ultimately One, in God, then it’s possible that we all have access, under certain rare and unusual conditions, to experience that we ourselves have never lived - but which has BEEN lived.

While I believe that some of the experiences I’ve read of ‘past life memories’ are sincere and inexplicable, I just don’t believe that they are necessarily the memories of an individual who lived, incarnate, the life that they seem to be ‘remembering’. I think there may be other explanations.

Many people take a lot from Christianity without believing in every ‘fundamental’ as it is interpreted by all the various sects. (Attempting that would be a good way to go nuts.)

Generally, my experience when discussing subjects like this has been that the question is usually a challenge to believe as others have interpreted Scripture; or submit to a process of being convinced; or to argue with them. I obviously don’t interpret it all as many others do.

I have respect for organized religion for the good it has done in the world and the benefit many people have subjectively derived from it throughout history. But I’m not personally, subjectively, a ‘fan’. It seems to me an extremely ‘mixed blessing’, when one solitary individual comes along with a great new spiritual message, and other far lesser minds move in and try to ‘organize’ it.

A profound ambivalence is the approach I’ve found that works best for me, when it comes to organized religion and codified religious belief.

It may be the case that when we’re ‘outside’ of it, we might view it differently than we do when we’re ‘in’ it; and we might say, ‘Hell, despite all the grief and difficulty, that was actually kind of fun! Let’s do it again!’

In the ‘80s, my close friend walked in her room and found her three-year-old son applying her makeup on himself. He was doing it perfectly. Since he had never seen her do I so she was sort-of freaking out.

She calmly asked him how he knew how to do that, and he said, “This is how I did it when I was a lady.”

He passed away a year later with a brain tumor.
