I just had a similar convo on pagan forums in the last few days. I find myself in the pitiable position of agreeing with Bel. Karma is a way for people who could not personally do bad things to feel comfortable in the thought that bad things will happen to people they would not do bad things to, even when they thought those people deserved it.It's an outgrowth of our complicated and not entirely rational view on how the world should be, with full knowledge that this is not how the world actually is.
Bad people get away with it. No good deed goes unpunished. -Enter karma, to mollify our dissatisfaction with these facts.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
