This is true. I don't know what such religions have to say about how and why humans began reincarnating on Earth. But the esoteric approach regards the human phase as just one step on the overall evolution of consciousness. Before entering the human kingdom consciousness expresses through lesser forms. After leaving the human kingdom consciousness expresses through higher forms. The human stage is a necessary part of this journey.
