Okay, back to earth. Here is the reality. It has been estimated that in the last 50,000 years about 106 billion humans were born. Of the 100 billion people born before the six billion living today, every one of them has died and not one has returned to confirm for us beyond a reasonable doubt that there is life after death. This data set does not bode well for promises of immortality and claims for an afterlife. But let’s review them one by one.
Haha you are quite right to say that almost everyone of them had died and many didnt returned. In the reincarnation theory, most people die reincarnate as OTHER things, and not human. Human birth is precious and it is extremely hard to become human in the next life after someone has died.
There are people who returned to confirm about their past lives and researchers found their stand quite accurate from the real life of the person that these people have mentioned.

Wouldnt that be assuming that the rules in the supernatural world work the same as our natural world?
And that experiment you had about the ghost in the other thread is lame.
I'm sure a skeptic like you would know about the research that tried to document the effects of prayer on ill patients. The problem is, how does one try to manipulate the hand of GOD? Assuming GOD or such spirits exist, would they fall prey to little whims of yours and respond to your tiny challenges?
Does god create the little critters that crittered in sea bed a few billion years ago?
