Karma karma karma?? Hmm, I’m still trying to understand everything about Karma.
In my opinion Karma seems true in a way, because in my opinion what goes around comes back around. Because God does exist, and if we follow Jesus’ way and someone does something bad to us, don’t you think God will do something about it. Of course he will, because we are his children, even though we all make mistakes sometimes. Jesus died on the cross for us, and he loves us. But on the other hand Karma doesn’t seem real, because why should we be good so that on the next lifetime we will be in a nice body and be a prince, ect, ect. We should do good things because our heart tells us to. Our mind tells us not to be bad, so why should we be bad. Or why should we not be bad just because you think Karma is real and the next lifetime you will pay for the bad things you have done. Do good things because you don’t want to disappoint God and your heart tells you to. Not because you want to make more “point” so that you have a nice life on your next life. In my opinion when you die you go to hell or to heaven, and not to a next body.

The idea of Karma is very questionable to me. We can never really know if Karma exists if those that hurts us never pay their karmic dues in their current lifetime. I think to believe you can accumulate karmic dues for the next lifetime is insane sense we may never know if reincarnation really exists. It just a crazy theory. At the same time I find it hard to accept, and even makes me a little upset, that if I wish bad karma on a man that cheated on me I will in return receive bad karma for those thoughts. With matters of the heart I would hope karma works differently. It would seem to make more sense that bad karma comes to those that are intentionally hurtful, manipulative, , immoral, and deceptive. I would never wish tragedies on those that hurt me. I do wish learning lessons that create the same amount of pain they caused with hopes it will awaken them. Why is that so wrong?

Karma? What is karma anyway? If it is the cause and effect thing, I guess that is what how you define it.

But if you use it as wishful thinking for others who have done wrong against you, I think that is wrong.

If you use it as a belief in getting a reward for doing a good thing, I believe that is wrong too.

For me, do something good because of your love for God and for others, do not expect anything in return. If someone hurt you, pray for that person (TRY not to think of karma).

I am also a Christian.

er. I am a Christian, though not a very good one. I just wanna say that I do find some other christians (in general) very self-righteous and irritating. No one is guaranteed a place in heaven, not even the Pope.

Discussion is always good but one must have tolerance for others’ beliefs =) and I think that is what marcus has been saying too, no?

whoa whoa whoa… it seems to me everytime discussion of religion comes into play, tempers get ruffed up and words get exchanged… is it not possible to discuss objectively and calmly? In any case, whatever religion i believe in, I would not “hard sell” it unless opposite party specifically asks me for info. I am always keen to find out about different religions but it seems to me most discussions always end in some form of anger.. NO offence to any one here. *peace out*

Mooiness: All I can say is that no one can force you to make an decision that you don’t want to.

I don’t think Christianity is superior in any sense.

To Me, it’s just the most logical religon.

Sadly to say, that’s is really what Christianity is about, that Jesus die for our sins cause we are sinners, that faith comes from hearing and hearing from the bible. And it’s the only way to heaven.

Hey marcus,
Alamak !!!!
I better screen through ALL comments next time before posting mine up.
Sorry for the confusion on my part. I have a bad habit of not reading what others comment and post my own up. Not good not good.
