Sure it could well be like this but LR is very very doubtful.
If this would be the case the universe would have disintegrated millions years ago.
I understand that some people win millions at lotto but the odds to win are one in a million while the odds to lose are the opposite so good or bad luck don't make any sense in this universal reality.
Sometimes people die of starvation because rich pigs at the top of the economic ladder sell crops for profit and let the workers starve (Irish Potato famine). Sometimes people have their life cut short because they are sent to war or are murdered by psychopaths. Diseases, shark attacks, bee stings! What is so mysterious about these things that you require a pseudo-mystical explanation?
In other words according to you is all about good or bad luck, isn't it chimp?
It could be that but I don't believe in good or bad luck.
The time will tell chimp.
In the meantime I avoid as much as I can doing things that could boomerang back to me (cause and effect or karma).

Quote:Perhaps if there was universal justice or a just god something should have disintegrated like rich pigs who let others starve while growing obese themselves. But since a just god does not exist we are stuck with laws and the will of the people.
You imply that if there would be a God this God would act or take action ASAP.
Why would he-she act ASAP?
Suppose you are a father and your grown up kids do something wrong.
They are grown up they got their own free will why would you intervene?
These grown up kids are now responsible for their actions.
They reach a stage in which it doesn't make sense for you to intervene.
They will sooner or later have to deal with their actions.
Why should you intervene and control their lives anymore?
It doesn't make any sense chimp.

Quote:Whatever the odds people do win the lottery. Why does that need a pseudo-mystical explanation?
Nothing last for ever unless a source nourish what exist.
The universe is no exception.
Energy and all other fundamental factors that make up the universe are fed all the time if they have a chance to keep on existing.
Good luck and bad luck are something that I let gullible people to believe.

When I am out of energy I pick up some parsley from my garden I juice them, mix with water and drink them.
Much better and more healthy than caffeine.
