The answer always seems to fall into that gray area between the two.

I believe it's evolutionary. I think karma and reincarnation are there to eventually move beyond them. Total free will in which you are open enough to live with your neighbor and not affect his free will is the ultimate attainment of freedom. It seems reincarnation is the process while karma is the playout of the dramas within that framework...eventual ly both are merged and evolve into free will which itself evolves to....?
