Reincarnation, as believed by other religions, is the death of one's physical body and the soul leaving the dead body and being reborn again into a higher or lower form, depending on the sins committed. The form, maybe , plants, animals, humans, and gods. That is what I remember from my Eastern Thoughts subject on philosophy, from college back in the old days.
Now, as a renewed Christian, of Catholic Faith, I have come to understand it as Jesus has taught and continue to teach through the church. I believe that we have only one life to live here on Earth. But our body takes on a "virtual form" here, like a an object, fly, dog, horse, or gods, and finally as a human form. These virtual forms are created by sin, caused by our environment or from within ourselves, if we don't control our thoughts. People around us, who, to widen their scope of authority, or people users, create that illusion and force us to submit to it. Some peacemakers, being children of God, believing in Jesus as servant/master go along with it, without totally submitting to the conquerors beliefs.
Now with the advent of new technology, man takes on a "virtual form" of non-living objects like a car, a cellular phone, a computer, an I-phone or an I-Pad. These modern inventions are necessary, I think, to take the beating by an inanimate object for man's sin. Also, I think, they are necessary to bring the world closer together. But anything that man does, has to be within the grace of God before it materializes.
But of course, man, being created in the image of God, inherited the dominion over other creations on Earth, God's or man's creation. Of course this dominion, has to be practiced with prudence, dignity and conscience, or he will be answerable to the Father in Heaven during judgment day.
These are my thoughts, as I have observed, learned and meditated on the things happening around in the country and the globe.
