I would like to see a study done on LGBT people with respect to past life memory exploration.
I bet there is a very high correlation between gender switches from the past life to the present life and LGBT tendencies.
There are, I imagine, other reasons that LGBT tendencies manifest, however, according to University of Virginia's thousands of confirmed case studies on reincarnation, ~10% of reincarnation cases involve a gender switch.
Perhaps equally important, University of Virginia's research has shown that case study subjects, regardless of whether or not there was a gender switch from the previous life to the present life, exhibited tendencies, preferences, phobia, affinities, etc. of the previous life.
A lot of transgender people insist that they've "known since [they were] a child!".
I think that's because they had past life memories with no guidance or support from their family or community to explain to them what they experienced and how to deal with that.
Nature abhors a vacuum, including a vacuum of understanding. Where there are gains to be made at the expense of others who wallow in ignorance, there will be scavengers seeking those gains.
Ironically, it is the Abrahamic religions objection to the doctrine of reincarnation that creates the very void that gave rise to the politically charged LGBT community that we have today.
Even Christ talked about John the Baptist being Elijah reincarnated but people will do all sorts of mental gymnastics in order to stay in line with fiat dogma imposed upon both Judaism and Christianity from approximately 66 AD through the 4th century by Rome.
Rome hijacked and redirected the Christ movement off course very early. They couldn't corrupt everything. They couldn't fully sweep up the tracks. But, they did do a damn good job. They basically caused the Dark Ages.
The propagation of information resolves that though. The internet is printing press 2.0 and is currently fostering a second renaissance...a new enlightenment.

Reincarnation strikes me as a method employed by the ego to comfort itself against the prospect of annihilation.
It's harder than it was before for me to believe that the contents of one human container is transported into another such container.
Far more intuitive for me is the idea that a collective un/conscious grants us access to the full store of memory before our own lives. Carl Jung and Stan Grof both have much writing that supports such an idea, and would help explain the idea of "past-lives" and their memories, even if reincarnation doesn't in fact exist.
My mind remains open, but always striving to question assumptions.
That's my two sats 🙂
I think the research done into reincarnation and those who remember their past lives is very interesting. Lots of compelling 'evidence' on the subject, I find it very difficult to outright dismiss. I would say it's the logical explanation.
A greater or collective un/consciousness is coherent at explaining both perspectives, at least the way I have understood it. The body isn't a container for the soul, it's the physical expression/manifestation of the soul.
I love this so much. Yes 1000%.
I still deeply believe that every BODY, regardless of biological presentation, has a capacity for masculine (giving) and feminine (receiving) energy.
It’s a presentation, it’s a mindset, and it’s a facet of a society that actually allows people to be themselves. We are all wierd AF trying to pretend this is ‘normal’.
Hetero-monogamous marriage? It’s not to “protect the family” it’s to abuse and entrap women, and allow the church to shame and regulate where how and with whom we share our love and affection.
Past lives? Yes, we are all here to heal, rebuild or continue a life path beyond just this one. I firmly believe that. I know in my own family line, there was a history of persecuted and therefore repressed sexual lifestyles. This led to many generations of depressed and abusive men down the line. I have been sorting this “genetic” depression out to be a lot of hidden lives lived and kept secret.
Pagan Greeks worshipped the Eros, and did not discriminate (to my understanding) much whether beauty was attributed to the male or female form. Pagan Rome probably did much the same. I am of Italian heritage, there are stories in there…
Catholics came along and took hold of the root of power by stealing it from the people; our free ability to love and seek pleasure.
There’s so much more there. Thanks @RedTailHawk for your always thorough and brilliant thoughts. 🙌🏼🙏
