The question is actually "does your 'soul' continue to exist after death".
My hypothesis for reincarnation follows:
1). Posit the existence of a soul.
2). Nature wastes nothing. Matter from stars long dead still exists, and is reformed into new and more interesting things (like us). Everything that we know of is recycled into some other form or shape (plants, animals, coal, rocks, etc.).
3). therefore, if a soul exists, it is also recycled into some other form or shape after each life.
4). Therefore, a soul will continue on in some other form after the death of it's host.
Our system was not designed as a democracy, but as a democratic-republic. The framers of the constitution looked at many historical examples of democracies to determine which systems worked and which didn't. They came up with a blended method, which continues to work. It's not perfect, and it could certainly use some tweaks. But I don't believe that opening up the direct vote to every Joe-6-pack is necessarily a good idea. The electoral college offers a balance against a possible tyranny of populism.
I am probably a good person but I haven't taken the time to fill out my profile, so you'll never know! |
