You're right xhale it's just more mumbo jumbo bullshit invented by lunatics. Unfortunately it's got some cool 'chic' factor that attracts people to believe in it.

karma doesn't exist.

just like that "everything happens for a reason" shit, and the "feng shui" or whatever shit it is.

i dont believe in any, but i thihnk that the reason a believer becomes even more of a believer as time goes on is because this shit makes people think that if they do a certain thing it'll do something, then it all becomes a thing of the mind. once that is already in your head, confidence takes over, and if you're confident in something your chances of success always increase.

Theres things that are real that our human minds just cant comprehend. You and your enviroment are one and yes everything does happen for a reason. It happens because of cause and effect. Everything you do whether its being born or making this thread was predetermined and couldnt have happened any other way.

Your emotions will rub off on other people as will your personality characteristics over long periods of time. Its simple cause and effect yet its a fact that your negative energies will ripple out from you and effect the people around you and in turn will eventually effect you once again in some way.

The only thing thats bullshit is your false sense of control over your life.

Karma is BS just like religion. It is designed to keep some people "in line" and if it works then fine but I call total bullshit.

Its also happened to me before, I dont necessarily think that you gouge out someones eye and it'll happen to you but I think that the universe will balance out one way or another simply because the whole universe is built on polarity and mathamatics.

Yeah, it's one of those "perfect world concepts" that people try to tell themselves so they can feel better when something bad happens in their life.

Kind of like "everything happens for a reason".

I believe in karma coz i find it a very scientific concept and a natural concept. It puts things in right perspective and is a really a very balanced theory if you ask me. I mean its basically supposed to mean that life always comes a full circle. Its like law of conservation of mass-energy. aND I LOVE THE BIT ABOUT EVERYONE PAYING FOR THE COSEQUENCES. It puts the man in control of his life like i am responsible for my own actions solely and I dont get to blame anyone for my shit. And I believe that everything is premeditated by our actions. Every situation is determined by our past actions. And we CAN change and effect our future by taking pight actions right now coz we dont have any power over what has happened in past

I think its easier to believe in karma if u believe in rebirth. If u do fuck up some people in present life.... u willl get fucked up later on.... Every action has a reaction... delayed or instantaneous....

Look every man is responsible for his own destiny. You don't really reap the fruits of your actions necessarily in the same birth. The effects will also reflect in your rebirths. I really cannot complain that you punched me. Things happen when place time and reason meet. Karma only says that you pay for your actions, if not in this life, then maybe in the next one.

In short it means that I deserved it. But it also means that your action wont go unrewarded. You will reap the fruits of the seeds you sow. You will face the repercussions of your actions. If not in this life,then maybe in the other

I don't know if I believe in Karma or not. When I believe in Karma, it seems like Karma effects me alot. When I don't, then I don't really notice whether Karma effects me or not.

Maybe Karma only works if you are paying attention, or have faith in it.

mma karma everybody was excpecting an upset with fedor vs lindland because of this alot of pepole picked lindland to win.. fedor won and alot of people were pretty upset about it..

Even though it wasn't the upset they were expecting, it was still an upset to them, after all how would it have been an upset if they predicted it??

thus karma came in the shape of an upset that shoudlnt have been.. do you get it??

fedor beating lindland woudln't have been an upset, but it was because alot peeps thought lindland would win becuase they were expecting an upset..

thus they still got an upset, just not the one they thought.. hah karma played you fools nice.

I wish it were true, but all i seem to see is people getting ahead through exploitation of others, dishonesty and manipulation. While at the same time I see people who are some of the nicest kind hearted individuals you could ever meet being treated like doormats.

As much as I wish it were true, I think karma is definitely a hoax (though possibly usefull if it can get bad people to treat others more humanely, even if it werent due to good character on their part).

Christ didn't teach Karma.

The Bible states that there is one death, and at death comes judgement.

Karma is completely contradictory to grace.

For karma means you kill 7 people then you will be killed in 7 lifetimes of being reincarnated.

So with grace a man can be the most evil and come to know Christ and be used by God for His good works.

Grace > karma.

Lame. The whole universe moves in cyclicly. Everything. The earth, the galaxy, everything. I believe life is the same. Not necessarily that we come back as something else, but when we die our bodies decompose and fertilize the grass, that the animals eat, then people eat the animals. Thinking life is linear is too narrow a viewpoint IMO.

07-30-2008, 03:03 AM
sure, everything that is made was made by God. All buildings built do not increase the mass of the earth, everything is made from the natural materials from the earth. We decompose.

However when it comes to karma, it's just plain stupid. Look into it a bit more my neighbor.

If you has a choice between true grace and any sort of karma... trust me, a rational person would choose grace every single time.

I hope you become that rational person soon.

I dont believe in either. I think Karma is a good way to guide your life. Its pretty much the golden rule which i dont see you disagreeing with. It helps people guide themselves into helping others. If someone needs an outside source for them to act humanly then either of these are fine paths. I do not need any help in order to be a good person so i choose not to follow any path.

BTW, where is the mod? Wouldnt caling karma stupid fall under bashing someone's religion? Or does xcept68 still get special rules? Keep that in the asylum bigot.

no, Karma isn't a religion, Hinduism is a religion Karma is part of the doctrine. In Christianity you can disagree with certain doctrinal principles without being a non-Christian. There are certain core values you must acknowledge in order to be Christian or beliving upon Christ.

I see you really don't have any grasp of religion whatsoever. So I can get to know you better, tell me more. I'm interested. Are you just unchurched?

What I was saying is that Karma is to Hindus as the golden rule is to Christians. Perhaps you should read more carefully before looking down so quickly upon others. Your religion doesn't make you better than anyone as much as you wish it did.

I was also told by a christian pastor that you have to accept all of the doctrines of Christianity not pick and choose. Those who think this is possible might as well pick and choose what commandments they feel like adhering to. He said this is whats wrong with most christians today and those who do so aren't really christians, they are just pretending.

They just die, just like everyone else, then comes judgement.

I can clearly see you honestly just don't have much understanding anymore of spiritual things. I hope you find what you are seeking. you are seeking something, considering the amount of time you spend in this forum.
