I can think of many, many reasons. Let me start by telling you that my Mom - who was a fundamentalist preacher - and I - who is not - had many discussions along these lines when she was still here.
For one thing, a belief/knowing of reincarnation is not really necessary to spiritual growth. The message of love God/Creator first and love your neighbor as yourself is really all we need to practice to move from so called 3D to 4D. And it has been my experience in this life that even though Christ's message has been misinterpreted/misapplied by organised religion, I still have felt more loved, unconditionally, anywhere on the planet from any other peoples than from Christians who really apply this message.
The one thing my Mom and I always agreed upon was this. Whether you only incarnate once, or many many times, learning how to love unconditionally should be your main focus while you are here.
Another possibility that has come to me in more recent days is that we have been incarnated as Christians in other lifetimes and "got it wrong". So we come here again as Christians to try to get it right this time. Isn't that really a recurring theme for anyone reincarnating? To keep coming here until we get it right and learn the lessons we are meant to learn? Or to pay the debts we have created for ourselves?
