So basically because some of our 7 with 27 zeros after it number of atoms that make up our body may one day become part of another sentient being, that's statistical proof of likely chance of reincarnation? Because of the way someone can perceive nothingness, means it is actually something? Kinda terribly weak stuff, heck, we can just point out that every atom in existence was born in the center of a burning star and is thus related and proves 100% chance of reincarnation. The main issue is the general idea of reincarnation involves the person living on in an a somewhat similar form, not the possibility of an atom from someone's eyelid a thousand years later become in a atom of someone else's toenail.

 

Not so much the reincarnation part but the nothingness part. Nothingness can't actually exist in our perception of the world. Nothing isn't a thing just as much as aliens aren't a thing. Nothingness is just a conceptual theory. If we die, do we experience nothingness, which doesn't exist as far as we know it, or does our consciousness live on in some sort of metaphysical state?

 

Also brings up the idea of epistemological solipsism. All that I know that truly exists is what I can access directly with my mind. Maybe my body, my friends, my experiences, and everything else in the experienced world are projections of my subconscious.
