My karma ran over your dogma.

Karma is real.  She’s a Black and Tan Cavalier who is seven years old today.  I have pictures.

Change the "K" to a "C" change the "a" to an "e" and add an "n" and you get this lady.

I like how Harlan Ellison said it "Universe doesn't care about us: one day it gives you the lottery and the next day it gives you the cancer".

Karma isn't always fatal.

If people want to say, "What is the big deal of using the word, it is no different than saying "bless you"....  Nope, it is still a hollow word, and even if one might accept it as an expression of emotion, on a planet of 7 billion, there are tons of superstitious individuals who buy such as being real. 

"Bless you" is seen now as a form of being polite. But go back a few hundred years, there were far more humans who literally believed that if you sneezed that literally was your soul trying to escape your body. 

Karma, might be seen in the west as more of a superfluous expression. But there are far more people in Asia and India that see it as a real thing. 

Karma in antiquity, for many Hindus and Buddhists, was the idea, that if you did well in this life, you'd do better in your next life, being good Karma. But if you did bad in this life, you'd come back as a lower life form in the next, being bad Karma.

Karma to many even today, in Asia and India is as real to them as our conservative Christians attitude of the biblical "eye for an eye".

I don't think anyone should get upset for pointing out  the origins of our species social norms, and the real reasons we use these words.

Why did you quote me?

No tell us how you really feel.........

I agree with him.

As soon as anyone makes truth claims and base it on a super cognition they cant prove exists, it does not prove where our species behaviors and morality originate from. It only proves to me our species gullibility. It does not endear me to them, it makes me want to run away as far as I can. Not that they claim the super natural, I expect that. What makes me want to run is when they start insisting that their claims are the cure for all 7 billion of us.

Good, you have a Superman, a Yoda someone sold you, ok? Cant stop anyone from buying are selling that, no. But I can and will object to such when such claims deny the rights of others.

The thing with karma is that it's not only not there but if you insist on believing in it (as is case with religious dogmas or whatever you call it) it then makes you think that bad people that, let's say are releasing poison into the environment, are good people because if they weren't "wouldn't they be punished by now?"

Not to mention it makes you look at all wrongdoings passively and thinking "karma will take care of them".
