Subject: RE: So do we live to die and comeback ....?
My apologies, Skarpi. I didn't mean we shouldn't be discussing this again. I was just teasing BillD a little.:-)

(And, BillD...black cats are NOT bad luck...unless one believes it to be so!**bg**)

I am reading a fascinating book, "Blind Man's Bluff," about the early days, and on, of submarine espionage. One of the ways used to figure out where a lost bomb, and later, a lost sub, was the use of Bayes Theorem. I have not read an in-depth description of it, but the way it is described in the book, a Monte Carlo type betting on the seekers' "hunches," made me wonder if those of us who believe in reincarnation, karma, etc. could apply it to our beliefs.
