Which schools of Buddhism are more open to differing views on this topic?

hi Kered

there is the Forest Sangha, as Aloka-D mentioned, and there is also Bhikkhu Buddhadasa

you can try the following books, if interested:

Buddha-Dhamma For Students, including question 47

Two Kinds of Language

Anatta & Rebirth

kind regards

The Buddha refused to have any dealing with those things which don't lead to the extinction of Dukkha [Suffering]. Take the question of whether or not there is rebirth. What is reborn? How is it reborn? What is its kammic inheritance? These questions are not aimed at the extinction of Dukkha. That being so they are not Buddhist teaching and they are not connected with it. They do not lie in the sphere of Buddhism.

Buddhadasa Bhikkhu
