Nope...

There is no such thing as an immaterial soul to shift between humans after death. Your entire personality is characterized by the chemicals in your brain (RNA, etc.), which is totally of the physical world. As usual, the personality and behavior is what is said to dictate the placement after death.

If we assume that reincarnation does occur, then what happens when the death rate in the world is larger than the birth rate? Did God create some Soul Storage Structure, likea stack or a queue (for the software engineers) to buffer the souls until there is a body born for them to jump into?

On the converse, what happens when the birth rate is larger than the death rate in the world? Does God have souls being "created"out ofsome supernatural factory to meet the demand?

What about when we start cloning humans? Are they without a soul, or was that in the divine plan of reincarnation to give someonea cloned body?

In the end,reincarnation is just another belief system that attempts to explain what happens after death...and it is just as flimsy as someone waiting to judge you, some entity rewarding you with 72 virgins for some selfless deed, spending eternity either in everlasting fire or with some schizophrenic multiple personality disordered god, or any of the other "theories" about what happens after death. Peace...
