I fall into the category of not really proclaiming to know either way and focusing on the here and now as it's knowable.
This is not to discount the Buddha's teachings, but I don't think practice changes with or without it as long as we stay on the path as much as possible thats what matters.
I suppose thats how I see the middle way, with extreme's in view comes clinging and attachment

I think practice does change when a person starts to believe in rebirth- it becomes more essential to end the rounds of rebirth -therefore the person will put in more effort into the practice - hence progress further along the path.
