Well, for me, this is my first, last and only life in this world as it currently is. I don't believe in past lives at all and I believe in future lives in a sense differently than some. I believe in one *future* life, and that life is earned or not earned by what we do here and now. When I get to my next life time, it will be a perfect one and will be forever. Not this, "keep going until you get it right" thing, die and come back, die and come back...I sure wouldn't want to have to put up with this world that many times.
