OT:

> "If you treat people better you will have lower rates of reincarnation"

I think the Buddhists will be very disappointed to hear that...

I believe you meant "reincarceration" (We know you meant that!)

Actually, Buddhists would be very happy indeed, no reincarnation means nirvana has been reached :)

There's actually a few Buddhist sects that would be aptly summarized as "Treat people better so there are fewer reincarnations."

My auto correct feature has been a bit overzealous here and English is not my 1st language. Updated the post you referenced.
