>The reason I mentioned reincarnation is because you said "It seems that all people are born with a clean slate." Reincarnationists believe that memories and experiences from previous lives shape the human psyche also and that in a sence we are not born a clean slate.. :) Ever had deja vu?

Memories shape the psyche. Not weigh it down. You don't carry it to the next life. Imagine YOU were reincarnated as an ant. Do you think your mind can actually grasp this conversation?

I never refuted that reincarnation can happen. The only thing I refute is religions that without a shadow of a doubt are a fallacy.

As Farid said, please stick to the subject.

On Deja Vu:
I had heard that the theory behind this anomaly is that the two halves of the human brain actually separate for a nano-second. There is also a severance in the storing of the current memory (one half of your brain is responsible for storage and one is for delivery) and the two sessions of memory are stored as separate. Your brain then starts to compare the two events as two separate instances but in actuality, they are the same.
