I was having a conversation with a close friend and the subject of reà¯ncarnation came up, he thought belief in it was justified due to the results of regression therapy.
Regression therapy is when you go under hypnosis to relive past lives. Apearantly a bbc ducumentary he saw where someone "remembered" details of a 500 year old farm in germany count as convincing evidence.
I mentioned to him that it was very likely there would've been a match if the patient had given a diffrent age/country.
I mentioned to him the patient might've read somewhere abouut a farm like this at some point during his lifetime.
I mentioned to him the therapist might have made suggestions to the patient.
Clearly none of these arguments are valid, and we have no reason to assume it is not true (some extraordinairy proof this was)
Shockingly he is not a man without reason, just very gullible. So I think I can easely pursuade him with a proper scientific study.
Do any of you know of any research/debunk of regression therapy?
Also feel free to add your thoughts about reincarnation mumbo jumbo.
