Atheism the unscientific belief (part one, two, and three)

Right...karma.

And what if a person who has done nothing but good their entire life gets struck down with a stroke or similar? What about people like my grandmother, who raised 4 kids on a shoestring budget, worked herself into exhaustion for years on end just so her family could eat, helped out in various charities and volunteered at a school in what little spare time she had, has helped her friends, family and neighbours whenever they needed her, and is probably the most wonderful person I've ever met? Did she deserve to suffer a stroke a few years ago after a lifetime of doing nothing but giving everything she could to others?

Oh, that's the result of karma from a previous life. All karmic seeds must bear fruit, you see, which is why your grandmother was born in the first place; there were still karmic seeds left over after the last time she died, so she had to be born again so they could come to fruition. Even if she's a really good person, she could still suffer the results of karma from past lives.

Enlightenment woo ain't nothin' ta fuck with   

This is every bit as fucked up as a hellfire-preaching pastor.
