(it just speeds up the whole process) very negative + very positive = very rich environment/stimuli human body has some preferences, you know, some animals have few of them, no other animal has all feats so set as humans i would say it is for the suit/choice of it is solely practical (again in this environment) you can now envision how full and noble ones soul is forget time as you know when following thoughts as this one try to span your imagination over longer periods of time to read the progress Last Edited by Funney on 11/16/2012 02:27 AM moral reasoning takes about 250 miliseconds we make errors in between perception->relation->behaviour |

Éireann User ID: 27571136 United States 11/16/2012 02:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We are both student and teacher in the same being. I can't think of any other species I'd rather be. Although, I would prefer to reincarnate in a time when being human isn't such a freaking nightmare such as after we've grown out of our need to control shit. Eireann~ I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. - Galatians 2:20 |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27851371 United States 11/16/2012 02:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I tried to remember when I was a child. It was like a compulsion, to try to remember back to before you were born. Same thing happened to Bill Nelson [link to en.wikipedia.org] Anyone else frantic to "remember" when they were a kid? I figured out how many days I had been alive and tried to remember back, one by one. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1366745 United Kingdom 11/16/2012 02:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because its good. It probably would have been better without mind control. Being human actually indicates individuality in basic form. Living as another animal is ok. The only other existence that I could think of now is one that could replicate life. If you were part of that, then not only would you not be you/would be you with every other being shouting in your ear, you may also be at the mercy of more exterior threats. More than the known destructive elements and other possibly worse life experiences. Maybe I should have incarnated as a pessimist. |

skuts User ID: 1267736 United States 11/16/2012 02:02 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I will sure try to avoid that line next time... Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27302306 even if my best buddies are doing it... I'm getting in the domesticated animal line and coming back as a cat. The Handbook for the Recently Deceased, aka the Tibetean Book of the Dead, specifically warns against reincarnation as an animal because you still have your consciousness and awareness, but are then trapped in the limited mind and body of a beast. Lots of people have told me next time they want to come back as my dog. As nice and comfortable as my dog's life seems, he tells me it is extremely limited for a conscious, self-aware being. |
