I guess that would depend on which religious philosophy you adhere to. :)
Personally, the idea that if we royally screw things up here we can have a chance to live life over again is somewhat comforting, as well as disturbing, all at the same time.
Bishop Rick has a really good point. Living another life doesn't make a whole lot of sense if you can't remember and improve on your past life. I just know I don't want to be reborn in Africa unless I was a lion.
I've said for years, when I come back in my next life, I want to come back as a dog for exactly the reason in the picture: to lay in the sun and nap, nap, nap.
Who knows?

Ah, we use to have a dog like that. But your dog makes me think of my teens years, when lying on the beach getting a tan was the height of relaxation.
ReplyDeleteI can't stand the feeling of baking in the sun. Hate it. I wish I didn't, as does my uber-pale skin.
ReplyDeleteReincarnation. Now that's a topic. In order for reincarnation to be a reality, there would have to be a God managing the process.
ReplyDeleteNow if you are talking about being absorbed by a worm or tree and living a second life like that, then you might be on to something.
I'm not discounting the God-managed process, but what good is it if you can't remember your past life to correct your old mistakes.
