Reincarnation: What’s the point? (Egyptian, hell, priest, quote)

It’s not like we remember or gain anything from these past or future lives in any way, so who cares?

...the one by whom you agreed of purpose in birth.

you care. i care. we care. else the flagellation with-in the more rigid and informal of technological swimming be devoured with the vain absent-prone relationship idols.

and I shan't cancel this opportunity to say so.

This is just word soup. Regardless of "cool name" in young girl's eyes.

Bullfeather jargon doesn't baffle EVERY brain.

Thank common sense.

Only certain brains embrace woo to the point of obscuring, if not obliterating, reality.

Thankfully, they remain - and always will remain - a distinct minority.

Noosphere was a term, coined by Prof. Vernadskiy, but for something quite different. He was referring to combined noo, or knowledge, from the Greek knoos, sphere, particular to the Earth humanity. Sort of a common mind field.
In such aspect, re incarnation is not applicable as, one who seizes to re incarnate, moves out of this physical world into the Realm of Permanence, which is beyond physical. Noospehere is still in the physical realm.
It is a bio field, created by all living beings - but on Earth. With every living being being mutually interconnected with the rest. Like as if Earth is one living organism.

When you think about it, that might make a case for reincarnation, of the kind without a soul but accessing the memories of a dead person, or many of them. They would all still be there. Why a reborn would access one set of memories (or a finite number) is a question, but I can think of one or two hypothetical explanations, or Faith claims, at least already.

Under "it" you are referring to noosphere, I presume?

That sort of concept, yes.

Incidentally if there are any people in this forum who say they remember living a past life in another body, please tell us all about it so we can historically grill you about life in those times..
