Not a bit. I've seen no reason to believe that rebirth or reincarnation occur, and don't see why we should even be wasting time worrying about hypothetical past lives or future lives or what-have-you. Dharma practice is about the here and now for me, and it's hard for me to imagine how such doctrine could be anything other than a factually-baseless distraction.

I know that a lot of other people see it differently, though, so hopefully they can chime in and explain it better than I could.
