Hello Ove

I the case of reincarnation, could it not be the case that memories could possibly be inherited? This would explain many of the insanely accurate stories beeing explored by people like Jim Tucker Professor of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences.

Cheers Magnus
By inherited, you mean genetically? I have previously mentioned that some people (e.g. Dalai Lama) are free to remember the earlier lives of their soul (although most people don’t because they’re supposed to immerse themselves in their current role). However, having memories encoded in genes would pretty much mean Jean-Baptiste Lamarck was right, and science has pretty much disproven that. So it seems the only possible source of memories beyond the current life, must be supernatural, i.e. from the soul.
