Edit: Goddamnit will one of you please comprehend my question and give a relevant response.

I didn't ask whether or not you think souls are real or what you think about Buddha

My goofy theory is that we are in a simulation, and we go through every life once. Round robin style. That way, when they end the simulation, no one can complain that they had a worse time than someone else. Everyone gets one go around as each person. One time you are the poor guy skinned alive by barbarians, and one time you are some rich billionaire with more money than brains. Then, when the simulation is over, who knows.
