Reincarnation is a common belief among religious Jews and has been for centuries; it's only been in the last couple that, in an attempt to assimilate into Christian society, Jews have put aside the idea. To the rest of us, we don't discuss the afterlife because it has no impact on our lives. Sydney, you're really talking about your own religion here and a historical view of Judaism that stops evolving around the time your religion started.
When Christianity came into existence, Judaism was about 2000 years old. Now it's twice that. It didn't stop changing because you came up with the cool new thing.
Charles, thanks for the link.
