Recently found another potential religious alert browsing internet. Have a look at TruthContest book - they try to make us believe WE are on endless loop of reincarnation and we were even dinousaurs at that time just forgot it! We should know such stuff not just for discussing but also to understand how our kids can be manipulated by such people..
p.s.They use too much quotes - probably to hide their agenda.

"Reincarnation" (is easier to "believe" and) is better than "gods" and "sin"(stupid as it is) ... (not that I know all about reincarnation!)

But reincarnation is part of some religions! And not all religions include God or sin. Some religion was about humans becoming Gods by living fair life. Also reincarnation is against Evolution theory where you just be born, live, make kids and die. Anyway it looks like you are trying to cherry pick? Typical. Good thing reality and truth does not care. But the presentation is just lol for that site! Here is much better and based on actuality not assumptions. What's invisible?

Reincarnation is about an immortal soul that is transferred to a different body after you die. Since evolution does not say anything souls reincarnation is not incompatible with evolution.
I do believe in (parts of) karma tho; in sunday school and befor that from my mom, it was taught to me as the golden rule. One of the few good things that the dictators of religions teach but is not why they spread like wildfire IMH(befor no "god")O!

Can I believe in karma but not an eye for an eye and yadyda? I do!{...}
Of course you can! But claiming to not believe in supernatural while believing in some of it is...different story. And it was not about you.
Heck even Hollywood movies mix truth with lies and search for special people. Too bad Matrix is displayed backwards but the point is they include such hidden religious stuff in most movies! Why waste all that money if nothing of it is true? Maybe because they know better?
Your supernatural[?] has nothing to do with what I believe. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karma_(disambiguation) Maybe what and who I like... and, unless Tinkerbell's on an airplane? Again; not just money we waste, time!

Which mind is easier to change, one who believes what they were taught or one who does not? Mind you one has many more supporting arguments than the other. Which may be blind to them?

Because it sells. Movies make money, that is anything that counts to Hollywood studios. Which by the way is why we see so few movies with original topic/plot and so many sequels, because they go for what has been approved to sell good.
Seriously, you shouldn't base your points on the plot of Hollywood movies.
