No; I meant-and probably said it poorly as I am not 'rational' at all, just ask my debtors-that you certainly don't have to believe in reincarnation as a substitute for the five senses. Just look up Plato's cave----maybe we are only seeing shadows of what is real. a Dream-like state almost.
I believe the soul has a meaningful path. That is different from what you believe. Okay. Looks like we won't find out till it's too late.
