    Reincarnation is supported by science

    So reincarnation is supported by the first law of thermodynamics. Energy can't he destroyed. Only converted into some other form. We may not come back as humans but the death of our mortal bodies is not the end.

    That assumes that a "soul" is a form of energy, which is not supported by any current science.
    It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shakes, the shakes become a warning.

    Death is the end of the configuration that gives us sentience and self-awareness. Energy is none of those things.

    A bit of a stretch, although it depends on your definition of 'reincarnation'. At most our corpses could be converted into compost so our remaining 'life' is distributed to create other 'life'. In fact, I definitely remember reading about such programs.

    Nice clickbait title, and not even an amusing post to accompany it. Fail :P

    Your energy dissipates into the environment and heats your coffin for a bit then it's gone.

    Theory disproved.

    The flaw with that theory of yours is that we have something called a "soul" to begin with, something that has never been measured or proven and only found in fiction.

    Isn't religion a banned topic on these forums?

    All I will say on this until that is clarified is that your statement is based on proof of a soul. Not all of us believe in the concept of a soul.

    Please don't post clickbait titles like this. This isn't really anything to discuss and it isn't even true.

    Closing.
