There's no religion section, so I didn't know where to put this.

Do you believe in past lives? Why or why not?

I'm curious as to what the non-Christians believe in.

Nothing besides Life And Death Are Absolute. We are in a world that tries to label everything because it comforts the mind to see logic and reason. Unfortunately the mind cannot comprehend what it does not know.

Examples..would be the naming of objects, or minerals, the names of food, or liquids, and so fourth... how did we come up with names for these things? Just another example of how the mind develops a label to comfort and explain things it doesn't understand. Unlike infinite space, the mind has a capacity that once at a certain point it cannot comprehend what it doesn't understand. Which is why it is taking us so long to grasp the concept of the things we cannot explain.

So in conclusion. The only things that would be considered absolute to our minds truly, are Life and Death. Because if you look at everything else, and then see that we are built on a society of logic and reason. That was taught to us, that was pasted down from generation to generation. What actually makes what we are taught really accurate? What allows us to give it a label? It almost seems like a limited trapped mind is all we posses. It is hard to grasp which is why people don't except it. Which is why I believe we have barely even begun to grasp the intelligence of anything at all.
