No, I do not believe in reincarnation.
Once your brain dies, you die, you were not alive before you were born, your consciousness was not alive either. After your brain dies, no more you.
Our bodies recycle atoms throughout our lives, but a single atom is not structured like an entire in tact living brain, so it cannot function like an in tact living brain.

Yeah, evidence is all around us.

I remember hearing Joseph Campbell say something like that every woman he met claimed to be the reincarnation of Queen Nefertiti.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

You too!
I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

Those first two are ridiculously not similar other than being homo sapiens.
