From GD:
http://cincinnati.suntimes.com/cin-news/7/102/112789/cincinnati-boy-previous-lifeThis young boy was able to describe details from a previous life as a woman named Pam. It will be bashed in GD. And, someone suggested that it belongs in the "woo" forum. I guess that is us.

And yes, some of our uglier members would probably harass you for posting this.
Life is filled with mysteries, and this one has a lot of details that are hard to argue with.
Wow!
PS, "woo" usually refers to the DU "Creative Speculation" group: http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=forum&id=1135
That's where 9/11 and JFK and UFO ideas are allowed for discussion.

"woo" meant Creative Speculation. I thought it was us! Thank you.
Yes, I do think there are too many mysteries to be dismissive of stories like this.

...when they are still innocent enough to consider alternative theories of the nature of reality.
If society as a whole were to embrace, fully, the concepts surrounding Life After Death, instead of turning it into a marketing tool to ensure social control, we would be able to focus on more than the tragic deaths in the "Chicago fire". Fire safety regulations for instance.
Our society would be a lot healthier if we didn't use 'death' as a punishment or as a one shot commitment to a lifelong set of rules. A set of rules that doesn't allow for 'do-overs' or so they all (churchmen and scientists) say.
Stories like this are evidence that we do, in fact, get the opportunity to get it right even if it takes many lives and many different perspectives and gender roles.
