Reincarnation is a far better metaphor than possible reality. Especially if you scale it down from lifetimes to say, a day.
-Each day we rise and then at the end of the day disappear into sleep for a little while. Each day we act out habits that we've cultivated for days and days prior (or weeks and weeks, or years and years).
-Each day we have an opportunity to observe our habits and decide if acting them out helps or hinders.
I like the story Buddhism offers for this reason--or at least the interpretations I've bought into.
Then again, I like "The Campsite Rule" is almost the same thing.
-The campsite rule demands we look at our relationships/situations and evaluate whether our actions are making those relationships/situations better or worse. It asks us to do the thing that will make them better.
So I'm a big fan of "Campsiteruleism" as well.

For anyone worried about a "Santorum Lawsuit" the wordpress site referenced by poster #1 has the strong stench of being a scam:
1. This site seems to have been started yesterday (There's only one post Jan. 3rd 2012)
2. There's no citation or link to a genuine news source.
3. It requests donation inquiries be made to a private email--doesn't say what "good causes" the donations will go to.
4. http://spreadingsantorum.com is the Santorum website we all know and love.
