For the purposes of this debate, there exists an afterlife accessible to all living organisms in the world. The living world is not aware of this afterlife existing.
Whenever organisms die, they are given a choice to either reincarnate into any new living organism in whatever time zone they wish, but they will forget all memories from the past (and the afterlife) as if it were a new life altogether.
Alternatively, they may decide to stay in the afterlife as a floating soul, being able to observe the living universe at any point of time they wish to observe. This choice is irreversible.
To clarify, you do not remember dying should you choose to reincarnate, nor do you remember the choice you make in the afterlife should you choose to reincarnate
