DO WE KNOW WHO HUMANS ARE, REALLY? With over six billions of us on Earth, you’d think we should know. But, the fact is that we don’t know where we came from, what we’re doing here, or how we fit into the “big picture.”

Some think humans are accidents in a chance-driven universe. Others think this universe is a natural result of activities in another universe or cosmos, but have no idea of how that one got started. Others believe we and our universe are the results of causative force, but attributions of “purposefulness” to this “causative force” reflect an almost infinite diversity of worldviews.

Different groups assert that they have The Truth about reality and defend it, often even with force and to their death. Long-standing personal and inter-group conflicts result from these belief systems that are only based on tenuous scientific or religious assumptions. The violent chaos in the present global society exists because such belief systems do not evolve on the basis of real-world experience:

Scientists avoid dealing with anomalous aspects of human experience and nature.
Believers fear to examine the origins of their doctrines. Educators indoctrinate instead of helping students to become self-learners. Institutions defend beliefs with arrogance and force. Paul challenges us to question the orthodox (wherever it is found) and to test our assumptions against the evidence that seems to deny them

Much thought-provoking evidence suggests that the way you look, think, react to life events, and interact with other people may be predisposed by the experiences of one or more human beings who lived in the past. Even if you don’t know who they were, you may find what appears to be their “soulprints” in the person you are today and the manner in which you live.

The Soul Genome: Science and Reincarnation explores these ideas, focusing on verifiable information that can be tested by objective means. The detailed, robust case studies presented here not only suggest that reincarnation is more than just a metaphysical concept, but also indicate that it is a valid subject of scientific inquiry.
