The best evidence suggests that your mind is simply brain processes or the results of brain processes.  When they stop, you cease to exist.  That is what every reasonable person believes today.  But people want to believe all sorts of bullshit, because they are afraid of ceasing to exist, so they are unreasonable and believe all sorts of ridiculous nonsensical drivel.  You will cease to exist when your brain fully stops, and that will be the end of you.  Reincarnation is a stupid, stupid, moronic, idiotic idea.  It is something primitive, superstitious fools might believe.

You might as well believe in Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny.

"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
