Simply look at the population growth.
So you would speculate that most of these are in their first incarnation? But even so, there is some knowledge of what they are getting themselves into.
Anyway, I was just sort of wondering out loud. Still seems to me there must be some reason for this. Roughly 1/2 of the world's population is born into a paradigm which says we only live one physical life. The difficulties inherent with this sort of attitude are, I think, rather obvious. So I was just thinking, maybe there is some advantage to offset these difficulties that I was unaware of. Like maybe it generates a greater propensity for polarization... but then again I can see how it could lessen that propensity as well.
Also- what does this mean for the "YCYOR" folks? If we really, truly believe that we only take one physical incarnation... does that actually become "our reality"? I am inclined to say no.
