Why do you think that all authentic Buddhists believe in reincarnation??

Dharma Data: Reincarnation

The belief that at death the soul leaves the body and reanimates a new one. Reincarnation is a fundamental belief in Hinduism and several other religions but it is rejected by Buddhism which denies the existence of a soul. http://www.buddhanet.net/e-learning/dharma...adata/fdd46.htm

It's not an either-or situation. The two belief systems do overlap to an extent.
