Debunking the myth of the Karmma

Debunking the myth of the Karmma
Karmma is one of the central premise of Buddhism. Without Karmma Buddhism almost falls apart totally. I will debunk it, and you guys see if it holds.

To those who do not know about it, it basically say that if you do good towards others, good will return back to you(And Bad with Bad). However, I must make it clear it says only a factor of good returning back to you. So if you, say, give 5 dollars to the poor, it buddhism does not say 5 dollars will fall back to you someday. It only build up a mystery positivge factor where good will return back to you.

Firstly, It has never been observed that you, even having free will, if you do some good or bad things, can change the things outseide your range. We now know the universe. Back then Buddha did not know. We know that we are on Planet Earth in milky way in this present universe.

A)To believe in Karmma, it will the nmean you have powers greater than whatever present scenario you are in. So if you donate the five dollars, somehow, other objects in the universe will change their physical laws and ensure you receive back the good deeds in future. This is simply now proven and equivalent to the 'flying teapot'

B)If you can believe in Karmma, why not believe in anti-karmma, which states if you do bad , good will return to you etc.

C)Karmma raises a lot of questions. For instance, if your intentions are good, but the results bad, what is then the karmmic balance? Or if you have good intentions with good results, vs someone else with even fuller good intentions but not results, who have received better karmma? Using Occam's rasor, Beieve in Science and the now, that only what now exists is much more simpler.

If you have more proofs add too.
