I was thinking about this recently' I never really believed in karma, but I decided to test it out. I won't tell you what I did, but it's supposed to need up with me receiving bad karma. So who here all believes in karma?
I believe in a skewed form of karma. Not all bad people have bad things happen to them, it's a bit of a karmic debt and then... Well, it gets more complicated from there.
I think people make each other's karma. You see someone being a dick, you're probably less likely to do them a favor. You see someone do something good, you probably have more respect for them and wouldn't be a dick to them.
No, karma is just plain silly.
It's a cool idea but it's just not so. But you should be nice anyway because people will like you better :D
I believe in Karma. Read this awesome story which is true. I went to 7-11, took my nephew to get some donuts and hot chocolate for his birthday, left my wallet on the counter at 7-11, only 2 clerks and one customer in the store, I asked the clerks if they had my wallet, they didn't, I blamed it on the only guy that was in the store and was next to me as I was paying, so I told his ass to give me back my wallet, he didn't, said fuck you. Days later at the same 7-11, I was at the counter, same fucking guy that I thought stole my wallet comes inside the 7-11 asking if he they saw a 50 dollar bill laying around, they say nope, the guy who I thought stole my wallet and lost his 50 dollars, gave me the dirtiest look in the world and left the store. Felt good. And I know that this seems barely like karma doing its work, but I know for a fact he was the one that took the wallet after leaving. Btw, I didn't even take his 50 bucks. Someone else did, I just like the fact that he had the feeling of losing something valuable. Who knows, it was probably my 50 dollars he fucking lost.
I believe in karma
It's a very common phenomenon but definitely not completely credible because, often enough, relating a good to a good (the same goes for wrongs) occurs much more often than relating them in reverse polarity.
If karma is real then I must have done some pretty fucked up shit in a past life.
I'm in-between.
It's a pleasant concept, but the on reason anything ever happens is because something happened before it.

Its a romantic idea and it works a majority of the time but most people forget to realize the humility of it. Yeah sure those CEOs at Wall Street weren't busted but now the whole country hates them and if given the chance, we would slaughter them. Its really people's perception of someone so if you're a dick, people will see you as a dick. It may not always lead to something bad but for the most part dicks usually have empty lives.
Thought this was a Doug thread, I was disappointed.
I believe in Murphy's Law! This goes for both good and bad people. Shit goes wrong, and always at the worst possible point in time. Whether you are doing a drug deal and you get shot. Or when you are busting a drug deal and you get shot. Shit happens, whether you are morally "good" or "bad" it doesn't matter.
"it's a croc of shit. " What does that even mean???
It's impossible to prove (and prove it's wrong). If karma is real, then it sure doesn't do it's job, or it's extremely selective with who it does, nice people die horrible deaths, terrible people get rich.
It's a belief?

Snip.
If you believe in karma you're more likely to compare coincidental events to it, falsely adding to its legitimacy. It's no different than if I were to mention Tom Selleck, you turned on the TV and saw him and assumed that I'm psychic because of it.
It's bullshit.
no

Typically negative actions will have negative repercussions, not as some holy force or bs like that. Not all good is rewarded not all evil is punished. Theres been plenty of criminals who have died very happy.
An invisible force completely incoherent with the universe which manifests itself only on humans, based on ethical factors of different actions. I wonder what they'd call the particles.. ethions, moralions, morons perhaps? No, I don't think so.
