I think we do come back, whether in human form or some other form, whether on the earth or somewhere else, I think we do come back.
I definitely disagree with this. As I've heard it phrased before, "the mind is what the brain does". You are the collection of thoughts and memories contained by your brain. Without it there is no you.
