INTRODUCTION: I. Attention Getter: Does anyone here believe that even when you die, your soul is still alive. II. Connecting Sentences: Your life will not end when your brain stops working, you heart stops beating, and your blood stops flowing because you can reincarnate with a new body which is healthy and intact. III. Thesis Statement: There is a strange story about the Pollock twins from Hexham, England that proved this belief.
BODY: I. Painful accident: A. The happy Pollock family had four members, were Mr. John Pollock, Mrs. Florence Pollock, …show more content…
He was convinced that the babies were the souls of Jacqueline and Joanna reborn. III. Life after death: A. John was right that they had twin birth when Gillian and Jennifer were born on the 4th of October 1958. B. Strange things about the Pollock twins: 1. “Jennifer had a strange white line across her forehead similar to her dead sister Jaqueline’s scar from a bike accident. When he checked the baby’s leg he also located a birthmark identical to Jaqueline’s birthmark” (Chris, 2014). 2. “The twins started pointing out landmarks that they had never been to before. When they past the school that their dead sisters had attended they swore blind that it was ‘their school’ and they used to attend it” (Chris, 2014). 3. Gillian and Jennifer could tell the names of all teddy bears and dolls of their dead sisters correctly (Chris, 2014). 4. “The girls playing rather sinister games. One of these games involved Jennifer laying on the floor with her head on her sister, Gillian. During the process of this game Gillian would calmly speak to Jennifer telling her that blood was coming out of her eyes because that is where the car struck her” (Chris, …show more content…
“A month or two later the girls were sent into a state of hysterical frenzy as they were walked past a parked car with it’s engine ticking over. They were screaming at the top of their voices “The car! It’s coming to get us.”” (Chris, 2014). C. John and Florence confirmed that they had never told the twins about their dead siblings until they were much older (Chris, 2014). D. When the twins were five years old, their strange memories disappeared. E. Finally, they lived a normal life after that.
CONCLUSION: I. Thesis Restatement: The story about Pollock family is one of the most obvious proofs that show the existence of life after death. II. Opinion: In my opinion, this story could be untrue. Because Mr. and Mrs. Pollock were so sad about the deaths of their daughters, they made up the story to help them forget reality and strengthen their belief that their daughters were still alive. However, even scientists could not explain it, so I can never tell who was right and who was wrong.
