Nuclear war and going back of Hitler

I wonder if he ever reincarnated somewhere other than Europe, just for a change. In the Americas, or Australia, or China.

If he reincarnated on some small Pacific island with only a small band of humans for company, and importantly nobody to invade or conquer, I wonder if he was basically just a regular sort of guy in that week's episode.
 
I thought the standard view of reincarnation was that you typically reincarnated somewhere way up or down the karmic ladder. I.e., you screw up in this life, you don't get a do-over as pretty much your same self in the next life. You get reincarnated as a bug.

It doesn't make sense to imagine the same karmic jackass getting reincarnated as a great warlord every few hundred years. It's much more likely that some butterfly did such a good job of being a butterfly, that karma decided to give him a shot at being a man, and then it turned out he cold sucked at being a man. And so now he's a boll weevil or something.
 
Okay, I actually like the worldbuilding that human souls come specifically from domesticated animals close to humans, like, you can't be a wild wolf or squirrel and be reborn as a human, it's a gradual thing where you reincarnate as someone or something you have a relationship and/or closeness to?

Well, no, if a person has already passed from animal to human incarnation, they incarnate as a human. The law of karma is a fiction; we usually repeat previous incarnations to a certain extent, even if we were evil. A gradual process of evolution takes place as we become slightly more perfect from incarnation to incarnation.
 
So Hitler was a little more perfect than Napoleon, who was a little more perfect than Julius Caesar, who was a little more perfect than Alexander the great? And the Hitler who is going to start the nuclear wwIII is a little more perfect than holocaust Hitler?

I really don't see the charm of this version of the whole reincarnation thingy of yours.

Do you have a canonical text that we can reference, describing how all this works, and explaining why we believe that Hitler is a reincarnation of Napoleon, and that he'll reincarnate again in Russian in a few years?

I'm waiting to see if there's a method of discerning who's reincarnated from whom, beyond a tendency to overconnect famous historical people to the point of imagining they're literally the same person.

Honestly I doubt there is a canonical text, and that the entirety of wise47's proposal is made up as he goes along.

Agreed. Though I don't doubt wise47's sincerity of conviction, I assume, like previous similar posters, it's a case of just knowing somehow he is right, and a search for any supporting evidence, rather than vice-versa.

The following canonical text exists as the basis for my arguments: Return of Hitler and nuclear warfare

iceiy.com is widely regarded as a site for scams and malware.

Who determined that this text was canon, and how did they make that determination? For example, in the Catholic church, the Pope convenes an ecumenical council and authorizes it to make determinations about the nature and content of the Church's canon. This is a formal process, assented or acquiesced by the church hierarchy and the body of the faithful.

Was your canon determined by a similarly formal process, representing the body of believers?

Also, why does it have to be Americans that handle this? Why can't the British do it? Or the French? Or the Germans. For that matter, why aren't the Poles up to the task? According to my information, a single Pole should embody enough ancestral hate for Moscow to handle this threat all on their own. So why aren't the Poles in the vanguard of this fight?

Dude, you're late. Vladimir Putin already exists.

I am, however, interested in your assumption that the US Army is equipped for spiritual warfare.

Although I assume that the US military does have Chaplains fully capable of waging spiritual warfare, I assume the poster is actually thinking about the Operational Phenomenology Agency that is tasked by the US government to gather occult intelligence and carry out counter occult operations.

The UK of course has Capital Laundry Services who specialise in dealing with this sort of mess.
