Exploring Reincarnation: Beliefs and Skepticism

3-year old Dorothy was playing, then accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. She hit her head and was knocked unconscious. When her parents found her, she wasn't breathing.

They called a doctor who rushed over immediately. Dorothy's mother broke down when the doctor said there was nothing he could do. Her little girl was dead.

The doctor left and returned an hour later with Dorothy's death certificate and gently discussed arrangements for the little girl's body.

But during this conversation, shuffling was heard coming from Dorothy's room. They ran upstairs and there she was, playing in her room like nothing happened.

The doctor examined her again. There was no sign of injury.

He had no explanation. He said it appeared as if Dorothy had come back from the dead.

He didn't realize how right he was.
