If someone makes a claim that obviously breaks the rules for stating a reasonable hypothesis, we may be forgiven if we doubt...whether we can prove him wrong or not.

Good thing Louis Pasteur didn't care if they *believed* in his unreasonable hypothesis!

It seems to me we keeep going round and round with "you cannot prove this in a scientific manner" and a "you cannot prove it, scientifically, that it is NOT so."

Has anyone read any of the books by the fellow for which I provided a link? The one who studied and wrote about children and reincarnation? Bill, he seems like someone you might respect?

BTW, Bill...you would be an excellent Rosicrucian...a walking question mark who will NOT take someone else's word for anything and HAS to be able to PROVE what is postulated in the monographs. (I mean that sincerely!)
