An interesting letter
I
particularly enjoyed reading that "it should also be borne in mind that no
scientist has ever disproved the reincarnation theory".
It indirectly
pays homage to science by feeling the need to justify itself against its judgement;
but then immediately proceeds to attempt to pervert the scientific method by reversing
the burden of proof (and such extraordinary claim would require quite
compelling evidence) and by failing to allow for the falsifiability or
refutability of the statement (a condition to be able to prove it to be false).
