Many people are in favor of the idea of reincarnation. But if reincarnation is walked out to its logical conclusion, where does it lead? You might be surprised to find out!

If it's real we would not have needed Jesus. SMH
@JL_Rowe Says:
This snippet assumes that to believe in reincarnation is to also believe there is no God. Which is not true. Many who believe in reincarnation also fully believes in God.

I know reincarnation is real. I don't need to believe I know inside my soul

They’d say it’s a machine
And it all happens without subjective choice from a god

I feel like these are really easy questions for most people following a tradition that believes in reincarnation to answer.
@joemiro9713 Says:
Simple answer to all 3 questions is your own soul no?
@Itzasimulation Says:
If truth exists, God exists,miracles exists and Jesus rose from the dead….. seems like a lot or prerequisites 🙄
@SlyTurtleGaming Says:
1. Who's keeping track? Who said this was even necessary? But, according to NDEs it seems there may be something/someone keeping track. The bright light associated with life reviews during NDEs. Sometimes it is felt as personal. Sometimes not. People sometimes identify it with MANY different religious figures. So the only legitimate answer is "probably something based on the empirical research, but nobody can know exactly what/who..."
2. Karma is just the law of cause and effect. Not a moral framework. Karma and morals are not the end-all be-all for reincarnation. So this question is irrelevant. And if you really want to press for a forced answer, then one could just simply say "probably from something based on the empirical research, but nobody can know exactly what/who..." Same as the last question was answered. You can't force certainty where it obviously isn't found.
3. It doesn't have to be a who. It could be a something. A universal law. Does gravity personally "decide" where the apple falls?
Abrahamic religions are so fixed on it having to be a personal, interactive, human-like god that they don't bother to take into account all the many of other possibilities.
And yes I know you're going to say Jesus and Yahweh give you certainty and I don't have it. You're right. I don't. You say you do where there is absolutely no way of knowing, and ignore all research contrary to your beliefs.
Read Jim Tucker and Ian Stevenson. Over 3,000 cases of reincarnation studied at the University level.
@michaelfoulkes9502 Says:
Jesus believed in reincarnation. He said that John the Baptist was the prophet Elijah reborn.
@scottmcfarland5830 Says:
The spokesperson here seemed to have missed the injunction. He must address if reincarnation & the Christian god can co habitat.
This man is not the official spokesperson for all christians btw
@scottmcfarland5830 Says:
Reincarnation is actually a belief of relief for christians bc it recycles souls in perpetuity instead of one & done.
@luxj.9451 Says:
I don't believe i _know_ reincarnation is real, to answer the questions:
1) I am, or rather my soul's internal records is. You all have one, it's your book of life. To borrow a phrasing. It cannot be altered, doing so inherently damaged/changes the soul in question due to how it's recorded and stored in you. Complex, but very good at keeping things straight. No one has to examine your life from a third party, every single thing you have done or didn't do is right there in you waiting to be read. If you are to be judged by your god THAT is how they will judge your soul's worth to them should it be based upon deeds. And unlike you it cannot lie, it can only tell what is recorded. And all IS recorded which has transpired. The only choice you have is in whether you shall allow others permission to read it, IE your god must have permission from the book's owner to read it. Which is you. If you refuse, you can imagine the impression this instantly gives to such a judge over your innocence.
2) Objective morality. Which stems from reality itself. It's not complicated to comprehend, nor is it arbitrary like your religion's commandments or your ever shifting human goal posts. And literally no one is above it, because no one is above reality overall. Not even gods are over fundamentals of reality, so staking one's moral framework in such a thing is the most superior form of morality one can have as it's absolute as physics itself. For it rides on that inherently.
3) I am. Though that one depends on who you ask, you may get another answer. But i decide my own lives.
You don't require a god to have reincarnation, you need not even have a concept of karma. Those are entirely separate concepts, albeit often related. To reincarnation as a subject standing on it's own. All you need have is: 1) You are alive. 2) You are sapient. And 3) That sapient essence that is you persists after death in some manner and thus CAN come back to life again by virtue of having done it once thus proving in doing so it can do it again. All else is unnecessary whether true or not to this subject. Notice i don't even include the concept of a soul, only that your sapience in some form persists after your body dies. You could literally be in a computer simulation and nothing but code and data on every level of your existence. And still have reincarnation.
Christianity isn't real though, but that's a whole other topic entirely.
@UlfhedinnNorsk Says:
Oh yes. God is too busy to track people’s lives and deeds. His “notebook” isn’t big enough. Thanks man 👍🏻
@lakshyaraj5102 Says:
All of the answers of your question is "YOU"
@ThedayoftheLord Says:
When you believe in reincarnation you yourself are part of that god and so you decide what you need to learn. You also choose your family and if this time you want to be a murderer or the one being murdered. That way you can experience life in all fullness because god really can not do that.
That is at least new age believe and what I grew up with.
All things in your current life where already things you agreed upon in heaven, before going back. You just can not remember what you agreed.
It’s all deception and lies from the devil, glad Jesus saved me out of that ❤
@LadyRomans Says:
I believe in reincarnation, and I can answer all of your questions. God is the standard or morality. God and the soul collaborate to decide where the soul reincarnates and what lessons to strive to learn during that life. The Christian God and reincarnation are compatible.
@speggeri90 Says:
If incarnation is true and were supposed to be on a path of everyone being more enlightened as time moves forward, but it seems rather we're stuck with wheels spinning and no moral progress. Kinda would argue against any incarnation story.
@andreaandreaoficial Says:
I am debating with the most difficult combination. Christians who believe in Reincarnation by claiming Bible passages and creating their own interpretations. I have explained each Bible passage and still they keep believing on this. They can not understand the concept that this believe erases Gods plan of salvation, eternal life and second coming of Jesús. I even went into population Growth to disprove their theory. Nothing worked. Prayers only. I tried everything I went to the Bible to church documents, scientific evidence. Nothing could get them out of their many lives on earth. When I asked them to prove their previous lives they got mad at me. All I can do is just pray.
@SnackyxChan Says:
As a ex buddist, now christian i hate the buddist religion so so much, its a distraction from what our true purpose and that is relationship with God. Its a highway to hel like all the other religions. if what jesus said was true everything else is a lie, that includes buddhism even if they claim its not a religion. Its a false sense of peace.
@petervonbergen5364 Says:
1. Nobody is needed to keep track, bc in Brahman there are inherent mechanisms of karma that keep track on their own. if you f.e. lie to someone or steal something, you send out a vibration that will inevitebly come back to you exactly the way you send it out.
2. there is no moral standard in the christian sense in eastern religions. Its just that certain vibrations that you create by what a christian would call sin, you create karmic reactions that will cause you to suffer and fall deeper into unconciousness, so that your way to liberation becomes harder, while the suffering is at the same time the remedy to educate you away from sin. Ethics in eastern religions are nothing but a tool in order to find your way back to Source.
3. You decide yourself. After death you inevitebly reconnect to source/Brahman and see the whole picture. Then you decide what kind of next life would fit best in order to make you learn and evolve. That includes painful karmic lessons. You can decide to take it slow or fast, intense or not so intense, depending of what you (and your spirit guides) consider the best way to evolve your Conciousness.
so these questions wont really bother someone who is into this worldview. From our christian point of view there are better questions to ask.
1. Why do this whole game of existence at all, if the endgame for everyone is to reconnect to Source in the end? You could have just stayed there. so why does Source split itself into seperate beings? if it does in order to experience a creation, then its just a weird kind of spiritual masturbation. Source is so poor and loneley that it has to come up with a universe full of suffering only to experience some delusional form of relationship.
2. isnt it terrible, that there is no love between living beings at all? Bc there are no living beings seperate from each other. Even ethics are nothing but an egocentric way of gaining advantage for oneself. Nothing anybody does is ever loving or selfless. Its just something that runs inevitebly to a reconnection to your starting point.
3. Question the origins of the idea of reincarnation. This whole idea derives from one culture and one culture only: The Hindu-Culture. You rarely found it anywhere else before that. The same is true for most of all "I remember my former lives"-Stories. they ususally come from indians or western people that are influenced by their teachings. Furthermore it is not so hard to see WHY it was invented: you can tell people its their Karma to be a peasant, a slave or under abusive authortiy. And if they accept this unjustice, they will have a better next life.
@dbalvarez84 Says:
Dharma is the Hindu answer for morality and universal cosmic order with a life cycle but the questions are pretty fair on who tracks or oversees the moral behavior.
@peterdisbury Says:
I don't believe in Reincarnation either and as far as documenting who comes back and why they cannot remember still is out of view for us to see. That is deliberate and up for debate without any evidence too. Quite the kornundrum.
@peterdisbury Says:
Everything documented about God, Jesus etc was written by Men not God. God did not write anything and there is no evidence what so ever. The ink the pens were all used by priests who have a history of corruption.
@quantomfox Says:
Reincarnation is under God authoriey if it is such a thing, and it can be logical if God wants to send us in this school over and over to evolve
@alcatraz3539 Says:
The only people who believe in reincarnation are religious or believe in one god or another. If you leave all that brainwashing behind and think logically "outside of the box" then reincarnation is more of a hope or a wish instead of accepting our lives are of no real significance to anyone or anything?
@rphb00 Says:
how does any of this argue against reincarnation?
@dad-ms8mz Says:
i am normal human from eastern religion and i find it funny . not the reincarnation but the arguments against it

@TheXFrequency Says:
1. God
2. God
3. God & I decide together where I go in the next life
@HenryGoodwin-rs2nk Says:
Can't say I agree or disagree with reincarnation
Jesus said that John the babtist was Elijah that came to restore things my wording so???
@Belle-p7y Says:
He's just saying things but the things he says don't really flow into each other ? Like how do you go from one thing to the next ? How do you go from "there's morality in reincarnation" to "you need God" ? He's saying things that appear to be arguments, but he's skipping a lot of steps in his reasoning. I guess it makes sense when he's reinforcing an opinion you already have.
People who believe in reincarnation, not all of them believe in a moral judgement that decides what you reincarnate into.
And even for those who do, can't they just believe that the universe works like that ? That mortality is a tangible, quantifiable thing, and the universe, like a well oiled machine, reincarnates good people into kittens and the bad people into mosquitoes ? Sure you could say God makes that judgement, but it doesn't make any more sense than a magical judgement that does itself, or a "will of the universe" so to speak
@NoThing-ec9km Says:
1)Answer: Ur Karma keeps track of ur action. And the moral standards come from laws of nature.
2)Answer: Ur actions(Karma) in this life decides where u go in the next life.
(Hinduism also believes in only one God.)
3) U don't need a mind to decide where u go to the next life. Even some non theistic Darshans of Hinduism believe in Reincarnation.
U r completely misunderstanding the concept of Reincarnation to prove ur religion right and others wrong.
@mikieemiike Says:
How can this life be a punishment and not remember what we did? Makes no sense. How would we learn our lessons?
@tunedintight6156 Says:
Nobody has demonstrated that "any" god exists, christian or otherwise. Faith is just an excuse people give when they have no logical reason to believe, (believing with no evidence), and it is NOT a virtue.
Here's 3 questions for any "believer" :
1. Why do you believe what you believe?
2. If you were born and raised in a different religion or belief's household/country, what religion would you probably be?
3. Why has god, supernatural things, including a "soul" and all similar woo, why have they NEVER been proven factual at all?
Those are the REAL questions we ALL should ask seriously of ourselves at some point in our lives.
@AtomkeySinclair Says:
ROFL give me a break. Don't ask a buddhist about jesus and don't ask a pastor about reincarnation. How utterly ludicrous.

@Syrin23 Says:
The thing is there is a very good study covering 3,000 kids who have documented memories of previous lives. KIDS with memories of being adults who died and have no relationship to the kids. They knew their names, families, how they died, events that happened in their life. So how is this explained? It's actual science, and the study covered 20 years.
@Syrin23 Says:
There is a LOT of really good documentation arguing that reincarnation exists.
@Mr_mk_46466 Says:
fools Christians don't know Hinduism concept properly but talking nonsense every time 😂😂
@edgarmorales4476 Says:
Reincarnation is not haphazard or without a consistent plan directing its action.
The purpose of reincarnation is always to provide the journeying soul with many entirely different experiences which will enlarge the soul's hidden store of worldly knowledge. It provides stimulating and necessary changes of scenery and of family and environmental personalities, of characteristics drawn from genetics, but always that thin thread of the soul's journey will be buried in the subconscious mind and will surface to influence the present incarnation, although the person may be wholly unaware of it. Therefore, it is possible for characteristics, strongly held views, or passionate ambitions to be perpetuated from one incarnation to another.
Sometimes the ambitions are formulated in one lifetime and only brought into a successful manifestation in the next lifetime under entirely different conditions. In such cases, before rebirth, a soul must wait until the world conditions will further the hidden ambitions of the soul successfully. If you can imagine a soul first plunging into a red pond and coming out dyed red and entering life as a red person with all its natural red racial tendencies, and educated in childhood to live "red" lives, you will understand that the soul leaves that life with much that is red in his consciousness.
Next he will plunge into a blue pool and he will emerge blue with all the characteristics of blueness - and the life style of blue people. When he leaves the world again, he will have accumulated facets of blue consciousness mixed with the red. And so it goes, life after life, the same soul growing through differing experiences of colors, religions, status, marriages, sexes, countries, politics, until finally, he wakes up to the fact that this is what is happening to him and he decides he is tired of all the various color combinations - he wants only to ascend into LIGHT. Then his true spiritual journey starts - and gradually, by moving into one life after another, he sheds the red, blue, yellow, green, black, brown, purple accumulated in past lives, until at last, freed of all the illusions and false concepts of past lives, his soul steps out into LIGHT and reincarnation is no longer necessary. The soul is strong, resourceful, creative - but the individuality of the soul is still inviolate and he begins to ascend into different levels of spiritual LIGHT beyond the frequencies of vibration of the world.

As a Christian, I agree but objectively the answer give is not very convincing . Just saying.
@Preach_the_Gospel_7788 Says:
Please consider the proof that the bible is from God, supernatural, and could not be written by man on his own. Bible writers would have to be able to see accurately into the future, hundreds and thousands of years, and very specifically foretell over 2,000 events, and never be wrong; that is impossible for man to do. Jesus (God the Son) proved his identity by fulfilling over 353 very specific prophecies, including miracles. Also, he rose from the dead from a sealed, guarded tomb and preached for 40 days after he rose from the dead.
John 3:36 (KJV), “He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.”
The UNMERITED FREE GIFT of Salvation is received by ANY person that Trusts in their Heart ONLY on Jesus’ (God the Son who came as God in flesh) DEATH (includes the shedding of Lord Jesus’ blood), BURIAL, and RESURRECTION for salvation, with NO faith for salvation on any type of human effort, works, or claimed positive human qualities. When a person believes only on the good news (gospel) of salvation, 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 (KJV), summarized above, ONCE, God Immediately makes the believer INNOCENT, born-again (permanently spiritually SINLESS in God’s eyes regarding standing and salvation), AS IF THE BELIEVER HAS NEVER SINNED. THERE IS NOTHING A PERSON CAN DO TO QUALIFY FOR, EARN, OR RECEIVE ANY PART OF SALVATION. ONLY because of God’s mercy and GRACE, he offers every person the UNMERITED FREE GIFT of Salvation that’s received by FAITH, plus Nothing.
Trace back the origins of reincarnation, and you will see it is man made and begins at the tower of Babel.
Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV) – “For by GRACE are ye saved through faith; and that NOT of YOURSELVES: it is the gift of God; NOT of WORKS, lest any man should boast.”
(GRACE means UNMERITED FREE GIFT. NO human effort or works can be involved in receiving or keeping salvation. We must trust ONLY on the payment for all sins that Lord Jesus made at the cross.)
Romans 11:6 (KJV), “And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace....” (Trusting on ANY human effort or works means that person is not under grace, but is attempting to qualify for salvation by the law/commandment keeping/human effort, and is therefore NOT saved).
BELIEVING the Gospel, (1 Cor. 15:1-4) with NO Faith on ANY Human Effort, is the ONLY way to Receive Salvation. Notice what is NOT included (works / human effort).
Romans 4:5 (KJV), “But to him that worketh not, but BELIEVETH on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.” (‘righteousness’ means God makes the believer sinless in God’s eyes concerning standing and salvation)
Acts 16:30-31(KJV) – “The Philippian jailer asked Paul and Silas, Sirs, what must I do to be saved? And they said, BELIEVE on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved.”
Romans 3:28 (KJV), “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by FAITH without the deeds of the law.”
John 6:47 (KJV) "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that Believeth on me hath everlasting life."
Jesus is God the Son who came as God in flesh:
Titus 2:13 (KJV), “Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great GOD and our Saviour Jesus Christ.” (The Rapture)
Colossians 1:15 (KJV), “Jesus is the image of the invisible GOD......"
1 Timothy 3:16 (KJV), “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: GOD was manifest in the flesh."
Isaiah 9:6 (KJV), "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace."
Any person that relies on any works/human effort for salvation will not be saved. Salvation CANNOT be received with faith for receiving and/or keeping salvation on ANY human effort, works, or claimed human qualities, including but not limited to: Repenting of Sins, Praying/Asking, Inviting, Water Baptism, Good works/deeds, Commandment keeping, Calling, Confessing, Turning from sins, Inviting Lord Jesus into your heart, Having a good heart, Dedicating/Surrendering/Giving your life to God, Following Jesus, Confirmation, Charity, Church attendance, or any other human effort, works, or qualities, etc., etc.
Galatians 5:4 (KJV), “Christ is become of NO EFFECT unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law (works); ye are fallen (separated) from grace (not saved).
Galatians 3:10 (KJV), “For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.” (We CAN’T keep all of the law (not sin) and are therefore condemned by the law.)
Our best righteous acts are as filthy rags:
Isaiah 64:6 (KJV), “But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.”
We are ALL guilty of breaking ALL of the law: James 2:10 (KJV), “For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of ALL.”
Water Baptism cannot be part of HOW a person is saved / born-again.
1 Corinthians 1:17 (KJV) – “For Christ sent me NOT to BAPTIZE, but to preach the gospel; not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of NO EFFECT.”
God makes the believer Permanently Born-Again (Sinless Standing in God’s Eyes), as if you have NEVER sinned; this is a one-time event. Notice it's NOT by Human effort:
John 3:3 (KJV), “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born-again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
John 1:12-13 (KJV), “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons (children) of God, even to them that believe on his name. Which were BORN, not of blood, NOR OF THE WILL OF THE FLESH, NOR OF THE WILL OF MAN, BUT OF GOD.”
Titus 3:5 (KJV), “NOT by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the WASHING OF REGENERATION, and renewing of the Holy Spirit.”
Eternal Security for the born-again believer is true. A born-again believer CANNOT lose salvation. Believing that a born-again person can lose salvation means we approach God for salvation with faith on HUMAN EFFORT, and that means NO salvation.
Ephesians 4:30 (KJV), “And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are SEALED unto the day of redemption.”
John 6:37 (KJV), “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I WILL NO WISE CAST OUT.”
1 Peter 1:4-5 (KJV), “To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are KEPT BY THE POWER OF GOD through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”
@Gg-rssystG8 Says:
Amen. Thank you, Father God. Yahweh ✝️ 🛐 and Pastor Turek, the Christian God is true !!!!👍.
@msmd3295 Says:
False assumptions. For example, drawing any relationship between truth and god. That assumes what makes things true is god. It might appear to be a logical argument but it’s entirely based upon a set of assumptions that Turek cannot prove “true”. It also depends on how one defines the concept of truth. There can be “objective” truths (science demonstrates that on a routine basis) but they are virtually all a causal relationship between forms of matter. Not some causal relationship between matter and the supernatural. Plus there are no such things as “miracles”. A miracle by definition is something that occurs in nature that cannot be explained by natural law. People often claim positive or pleasing events to be miracles and they are not. Miracle is a term that is commonly co-opted to describe joyful events but joyful does not necessarily qualify as a miracle. Here’s an example of what might be viewed as a legitimate miracle. Out of the blue on some given day when people looked to the sky (day or night) to discover our spherical Moon had instantly become a cube. That would appear to violate what is known about physics and gravitation in particular. The proper use of miracle would be something that defies natural laws. As far as the possibility of miracles, encompassing the entire potential spectrum of all “possibilities” one could claim “anything is possible”. Unfortunately the odds in favor of miracles is so infinitesimally small no truly rational being would consider such a phenomenon possible. Considering the fact that there has never been a documented case in which a TRULY dead person became alive again. The physical body starts decaying shortly after all bodily functions cease. The brain for example could still be active for a period of a few minutes after the heart stops pumping blood but after that brain damage progresses and within an hour is nothing but nonfunctional cells and lost memories. For those who want to claim Jesus was not subject to the same physical laws as any other biological body because he was supernatural, spare me the insult. First you have to prove Jesus was supernatural and not just make claims about the biblical person. Logical arguments of any real relevance contain premises that can be supported with known facts. Hypothetical premises are only matters of speculation and fun entertainment.
