This ''works'' if one believes in multiple personalities, with a ''hidden'' one behind the scenes that pulls the play and puts something (what is it?) to Earth at the moment of conception (or later on?). It's a bit odd. It makes ''sense'' if you accept there is someone else pulling the strings and that you have multiple identities or 'beings' in you. But it's not logical for there to be responsibility for any *past life* if there was a different personality. How would it work you think?

That which is conscious has no past lives.

Does not apply to me, as they're not my beliefs..
It's like saying ''Allah is real and the Muslims are 100% correct whether you believe in it or not.''
