The plural of anecdote is not data

Here we move from conceptual coherence to empirical evidence, and despite the numerous books and testimonies Akong and Ringu cite, as the old saying goes, the plural of anecdote is not data. If someone had really remembered a detail from a past life which could be verified and they could not have otherwise known, that would be an astonishing discovery, on a par with making contact with extraterrestrial life. And if people did routinely recall past lives, it shouldn’t be hard to find numerous verifiable instances of such memories.
