The Western use of Karma

Karma only works when it's convenient.

Karma is Bullshit as is the law of attraction. It is not like gravity as that is measurable and Karma is not. . Karma only happens in hindsight. It's like with so-called psychics. You remember the hits and not the misses. It's wishful thinking and infantile. Saying there's no time limit is moot as that doesn't show any proof as you can't prove that such and such bad thing happened because of the behaviour of this past event 20 years ago. Bad things happen and good things happen. That is a part of life. It's not mysterious. There's no mystic intention behind it. Sure if you play the odds and you are a very nice person, you may have people reciprocate good deeds. But to call that mystical is dumb as it ignores the evolutionary benefit of cooperating societies. Also, to easily disprove karma and the law of attraction (as Jennifer LaBonte alluded to) is look at persons, even children if you will in dire circumstances. So if you can look at this pic of this child and think karma and the law of attraction is giving him his due, then you are a special level of delusional.

The credulous man is father to the liar and the cheat"

It also begs the question. What if person A causes harm to person B. By rule of Karma, person C comes along and causes harm to person A (aha! Karma!). Does person C get to have a bad thing happen to them for doing a bad thing since it was Karma that initiated it????
