True death doesn't exist. Its the end of one chapter for you and the start of another. In my opinion their souls are simply not ready for the next adventure, they still have some learning to do. They will just reincarnate somewhere else to learn the lessons they need for graduation.

My entire bloodline was manipulated and brainwashed as well, all of ours have been. We all have experienced pain and suffering here, we have all experienced brainwashing here.

The only thing thats truly different from one person to the next is the choices we have made.
