Yes indeed.

My own opinion is that there's no point in speculating about past lives or rebirth after I'm dead because its completely irrelevant to my present life and to my practice here and now.

The Buddha also said that by not regarding the first four precepts and not living in mindfulness of your actions, makeing negative/harmful choices, one will be reborn in the animal or hell realm. I will add the source when I get back to my computer after work. So how would this not relate to your presant existance/practice?
