>>12230768>if you don't remember who you were in a past life, then reincarnation is pointless.No, it's not pointless; it's pointless on a small scale - but on a scale of millions and billions of years - even hundreds, if you do the right things, having genuine love and compassion for your fellow man and animals too, you will become a better and better being. You will notice how everything created by physics such as basic scaffolding for buildings, electricity, computers, neural networks, are taken from nature. They are never created, they are engineered from nature and repurposed by man. You will never be able to imagine what new creation evolution holds in store.
You won't remember your past life, sure. But you should become a greater and greater life form.
>Also, how do you explain the increase in population?There are many planets and many galaxies. "In my father's house there are many abodes". Panspermia may be true, and if so, all DNA came from one source and there are many planets with lifeforms similar to Earth. Also, animals can evolve into humans if they do the right things, and humans can become animals if they do the wrong things. A chicken on a farm won't get slaughtered over and over, if the chicken does the right things, it might become and humanoid chicken on a far away planet with an advanced civilization. Or maybe born millions of years into the future where animals, including humans, no longer eat chicken so it will no longer be on a farm.
