I most certainly do! Unfortunately for some though, it may take until the next life to ask for repayment! Nice to see you back, btw and holding no grudge that can be seen through your questions!(looks at a certain 'couple' distastefully...)
Speaking of which, I notice your puppies are here, following at your heels, keen to waste their time and energy with that oh so common 'christian' attitude, LOL!!!
What 'lovely' people! penultimate one before me, claims to "help out with the little kids from the make a wish foundation"! Let's hope those wish kids never get on the wrong side of her, eh?!!!
First one before me claims to "love helping anyone in need even if it means i have to starve myself in the process". Wow, I think I'd pass that offer, myself! He's also devout in his belief in God-judging by his style of exacting 'revenge' on women who 'dare' cross him, I find that a somewhat tenuous claim to believe.
Let's all hope they can come to terms with their inner hatred and need to prove themselves before it's too late, lol.
;)
LOL sexylady!

There are many ways people define karma. But, in all, I don't believe there is such a thing. Merriam-Webster online says that karma is " the force generated by a person's actions held in Hinduism and Buddhism to perpetuate transmigration and in its ethical consequences to determine the nature of the person's next existence."
The biggest problem with this is: How is the force of a person's actions decided? Is it natural law? Is it based on whether or not a person did "good" or "bad?" And if so, who decides what is good and bad? Buddhism, Hinduism, Catholocism? Culture? Society?
With this definition, It is especially difficult to believe in Karma when one doesn't believe in reincarnation. But, let's just say the person asking this question is talking about the more common, "what goes around comes around" definition. Again, the same questions perpetuate. Who decides what is good and what is bad?

I most definately believe in Karma. There is a lot of good in the world, even if it isnt that easy to see.
I also honestly believe that sometimes Karma is all that good, honest people can hold on to. I'd truly like to believe that what comes around, goes around, while at the same time I can't help but wander when my time is to come...

Not in a religious or mystical sense, but in a logical way, yes. For instance, if you see this person speeding on the highway, and he keeps driving like a moron, tailgating and stuff like that, you may eventually see him pulled over or in a wreck later on down the road. That is not true karma as defined, but to me, that is sort of a karma, although actually something that is deserved by action. In other words, I didn't have to do anything about the jerk myself. By his own actions, he will eventually get himself into trouble.

Absoloute yes. When I do horrible things, like mis-judge people, it hits me, and I know it's Karma attacking! When you do a good deed, you are deserved with a special gift, with what we call lucky. It isn't luck, it's karma. If you're an awful person, you get awful things and remarks in return. So yes, I do beleive in Queen Karma.

Of course, I believe karma surrounds us everyday. Karma is like saying,"Do you believe in dreaming?" Karma Isn't really a religious thing. But alot of the older people in church will bring up karma will a youngin' really acts up.

Yes. Whenever I do something wrong, there's Karma to help tell me what I did. And when I do something generous or good without being told to, Karma stikes again.

Yes, I firmly believe in Karma. I was always taught "what goes around, comes around", and that there are always consequences for each action that we do.
Have a lovely rest of the evening.

As much as I believe in the tooth fairy, santa claus, big foot, nessie, chakras, ghosts, angels, demons, ... I could go on and on with bunk stuff like karma.

Not in the traditional sense. But I do seem to have great things happen to me when I'm consistently acting on the side of good. I'm sure it is more a result of causality, but you never know.
