Hope it makes little more sense. No one will be happy about a girl getting raped. Like you have your reasons as to why she is raped I have mine. Yes they contradict each other. Like you and me typing this in different parts of the world. But sir. Surely I'll never be happy that a girl got raped due to "x" reason.She deserved it, right? Where would the justice be if she escaped what she deserved? Shall I quote you?
Quote:I like anyone else feels sorry for the girl and anger towards the rapist. If you ask me the underlying cause I would explain it to you as their karma which they have brought with them.Right, so, she deserved it. Would you be happy if people escaped what they deserved?
Quote:Cause & effect and karma might not be the same in the English language , however both have very close meanings. They don't contradict each other like - +. Only cause and effect is bound to this physical world.They don't seem to have even -remotely- similar meanings. Cause and effect is not a moral normative statement or mechanism. Karma is.
Quote:I have told you once that I don't know what will happen to me when I die. I might go to heaven, hell, reborn or just cease to exist. If I was sitting on my beliefs i wouldn't have made that claim. Since you asked about karma only I tried my best to explain. I'm always open to new evidence. Which is why I joined this forum for discussion. I could have joined a Buddhist forum to get favorable responses but I didn't.I assume that you -must- be open to new evidence, since any evidence of karma would be new to you. Here again we see an example of why I think that you ought to understand christians just fine. After all...they're open to any new evidence that there god doesn't exist as well..lol.
*kudos, btw, on putting your innermost through the fire, so to speak. It's difficult to share that sort of thing no matter what it is. I respect you enough not to softball you, wasting the courage it took to share.
