I have researched reincarnation quite extensively and I find a lot of evidence for it, so much that I don't "believe" we reincarnate, I know we reincarnate...or at least some people have reincarnated. Whether or not I have or will, I don't "know", but I believe I have and will again. I think I still have a lot to learn, although I feel like I am further ahead spiritually than some of my friends. My belief is based on my easy understanding and acceptance of new concepts that go against my previous beliefs when evidence is presented; that we live on a plane, not a spherical planet (that is an evidence-based fact, not a belief), that we are all eternal aspects of the Creator, which I now strongly believe, but don't know, and that our purpose here is to learn and grow, not to attain some eternal life in Heaven. As for Christianity and reincarnation, I think there are allusions to reincarnation in the bible, but it's a lot more profitable to tell people that they have to be good, tithe, believe in a specific version of God and Jesus to get to heaven vs. burning in hell for eternity, than to tell them that if they mess this up they can always try again in the next life.
