Then karma is a toilet circling the drain, in your estimation...where the bad just piles up and the good goes unrecognized - it does not modify one's karma? Christians -also- believe that they will suffer the consequences of their actions, specifically their sins. They will die. Death is the price of sin. Suffering is the price of sin. They will die, they will suffer, regardless of whether or not they are saved by grace, through faith or works. It is not an article of christian faith, that accepting jesus into your heart will remove you from the very real consequences of your earthly actions. It won't, for example...get you out of prison, or un-murder someone. That is not what they mean, that is not how they understand their faith, you have misunderstood.
The manner in which -they- understand their faiths -as stated-, is very similar to the manner in which you understand your own. You are hung up on the color of two dresses, when I'm discussing the similarities between the girls -wearing- those dresses.
