Why not be equally skeptical
of any kind of life after death?

Evidence for any kind of life after death
is just as debatable and inconclusive as
evidence for reincarnation.

Again reincarnation may be a reality regardless
of whether belief in it makes one prone to
inaction in this life or not. Don't
confuse two separate issues.
