They can do DNA testing to check a corpse that's thousands of years old to see who it was, so why can't they do DNA testing to verify the theory of reincarnation.

Because they would have to find and dig up every body ever buried, process the dna, then process the dna of every living human as well. They would then have to compare the samples, adn even then data would be flawed because most old corpses do not provide any dna, and they could never find them all, especially because many have decayed. Of course, the computing power required to do all this would far exceed the sum of the power of all the computers that currently exist. The project would als take several hundred years, making it highly impractical, especially since the study would serve absolutely no purpose, and most likely would in the end find that reincarnation does not exist, at least not with dna.

I don’t believe souls contain DNA

Reincarnation doesn’t claim that the person has the same body, just the same soul.

If I am understanding you correctly and I may not be, you would need to perfectly match the DNA of the reincarnated to the person that the precursor to the reincarnated one. Sounds like too much work, to say the least. That whole soul thing is rather ill supported by the evidence.

I try not to say this, but that is a rather ridiculous idea.
Reincarnation is based around that a person dies and their SOUL comes back again in another time, place, and perhaps even species. You can’t test for a soul in any person’s body as it is a religious belief, not scientific.
Furthermore, let’s just assume for a moment that reincaration does happen. In your last life, you were a little tibetan woman. Now your current life, you are, lets say, a white male in australia. Hmm, your gender alone changed…thus DNA already doesn’t match. Add in that your genetic sources (parents) changed, DNA doesn’t match even further!
