Best Answer

Only in the case of a few individuals (Lazarus, Jesus, etc.) Not in the same way as someone from a Hindu or Buddhist tradition would.

Roman Catholic AnswerNo, metempsychosis (reincarnation) is the theory of transmigration of human souls from one human body to another body - not necessarily human. It was taught by Plato and is characteristic or Eastern religions. It has never been believed in Christianity. The above answer is talking about resuscitation in the case of Lazarus and resurrection in the case of Jesus: neither of which has anything to do with reincarnation.

No, Catholics have always believed that a person (the soul) is immortal and will live forever but not come back to earth as another person.
