Reincarnation and other Possible forms of Life After Death
Debate Information
Now, my knowledge in some areas might be somewhat limited here at the moment.
However, when it comes to Reincarnation a part of me thinks that life goes on all the time in a certain sense. When I use the term reincarnation I don't mean it in the sense that we come as reborn as another human or other animal species. What I am getting at is that since energy cannot be created or destroyed; only transformed and energy is matter, and that we're made of the matter then we too, in essence, cannot be created or destroyed; only transformed. In this sense, it then seems nice to think of birth and death as transformations of energy/matter and so life really does go on forever.
However, another part of me thinks that this might just be wishful thinking.
What are your thoughts?

Arguments
Reincarnation implies being reborn in a new body, it cannot mean anything else...
Now, you speak of "life after death" in terms of energy-matter, this can be misleading IMO... Do you consider matter and energy to be forms of "life"? Now, they are certainly the basis of "existence" but I wouldn't use "life" in this case... So, yes existence does go on after we die, as existence has no choice but to exist... But do you also imply that the human consciousness somehow continue to exist after the death of the body?
The currently accepted hypothesis regarding the ultimate fate of the Universe is the Heat Death where the universe is presumed to reach thermodynamic equilibrium (maximum entropy) at which point no work will be possible, but at this point, it may be that another universe could possibly be created by random quantum fluctuations or quantum tunneling in roughly
