I don't think I've ever heard anyone address the whole issue of "we all have souls from past lives" but also there's significantly more people on this planet than originally. So like, did we have a stockpile of souls and like, some got picked first and they've just been in circulation and the rest were printed later? Or do some people just not get souls? Or everyone gets new souls, hot off the press, but these three year olds get used hand-me-downs? Or were souls an invention like halfway through humanity's existence?

I need an answer that is consistent both internally and externally and everyone agrees on.

A bunch of animals get souls, too. There's plenty to go around.

Please list all of the ones that do

Cats, dolphins, primates, dogs, whales, some sharks and goats (it's on an individual basis and not by species)

Morris Kane, nurse shark, 12 years old, swims around the Brazilian coast mostly. Good guy, a little temperamental with people so he mostly avoids the tourist hangouts. He gets pretty chatty when he gets a little caffeine in him, it's actually kinda funny

That's a common misconception, dogs and cats categorically do not have souls. Tarantulas, surprisingly yes.

Cats and dogs have souls, sorry. You are partially correct that tarantulas have souls: most of them have souls.

Nah I'm sorry, I made inquiries.

Those were liars trying to spread their falsehoods, and they have deceived you into doing their evil work. Kitty cats and doggies have souls.

Collective delusions.

Same with past life hypnosis.
Everyone was either a famous person, or directly involved with a famous historical person. And also from recorded history.
You never got any saying they were a poor as poo poo dirt farmer who lived and died in the same 10 miles of barren as poo poo land in the middle of nowhere.
And no one has ever said they were from 20000BC or can tell us any historical information lost and not known until now, like their written or oral language.
Funny no one went 'Ah great, can you translate these hieroglyphics we lost how to read them' to fuckwits saying they were once Cleopatra's slaves.

I actually did a past-life meditation class, and I was a barefoot and illiterate peasant who lived in a windowless hut. But I'm also the kind of person who would as a raggedy serf at a Ren fair, so :shrug:

I read this as "they get reincarnated as cops" at first.

Some people believe that animals get souls as practice before being reincarnated as a human, so that's possible

In this case the nihilistic oversimplification is literally nothing. Literally nothing happens when you die.

How is that a "nihilistic oversimplification?"
