I always laugh when I hear people use this as an argument.
There are more individuated souls in in the spirit world in queue to incarnate than they could possibly imagine. And they also aren't limited to incarnating in one time reference, and there are parallel realities as well. Of course, a materialist isn't equipped to understand that in the first place, and will inevitably see such an argument as some kind of cop out.
That's what I told him, and also that there are ET souls. I've told him I believe I am an ET soul, though it doesn't convince him. But I'm not trying to convince anyone. I'm still surprised at how eager I was to incarnate.

I find it must be easier with a philosophy that God doesn't exist, than to have a God who has dominion over creation. I don't think God is an individualized being. I don't even like using the word God. I prefer Source. Source is impersonal. Source is pure love. Source is not a person or a being. Source is the whole material universe and more. So I don't believe there was a God that created the Universe. I see it more as Logos, which are impersonal, focusing of intelligent infinity that created universes.
I used to love God. But that ship has sailed after "he" disappointed me and led me astray. I'm just glad I didn't do even worse things like hurt my mom. I was fully capable of that. Though she gets on my nerves at times, I still love her.
My friend, I will respectfully disagree that Logoi impersonal as you yourself are one.
That may be true. I often thought that Logos doesn't hear my prayers. But the prayers aren't always positive. As the song says "I feel something so right doing the wrong thing."
