Good answer's so far everyone! I really wanted to know where different people stood with this idea.

I believe in a complicated form of Karma. Life is a struggle. Struggle can test the spirit and make it stronger. On the other hand, an easy life, can tune one out of the world, and weaken the spirit. Everything we do does affect ourselves and others. Our relationships with other will be helped or hurt, depending on how well we treat them, and whether we make good investments in them. The relationship we choose to invest in are also important. If one focuses on contributing to addressing, the serious problems in this world, it will make you spiritually stronger, and more able to do positive things in future lives. Being strong spiritually, and able to cope with a lot of pain and hardship, in order to achieve positive goals, is a very valuable characteristic. Strong spiritual people are not as easily upset, or made depressed, as less strong spiritual people. I have personally, often had stuff come back at me, because of my all out intense approach, that is how I have learned a lot very fast.

Yes, I do.
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. I think that'd be a more applicable way of putting it.
The only thing I don't agree with in the theory of Karma is the definition of good or bad. It's such a human construct, who knows what is truly the right action to take. I mean, everyone has a different view on what's right and wrong.

Yes I do. I hardly experience this myself. I try to my best to do right by others. However, people that I know, have not been able to escape this ordeal. They have done me wrong and now their wrongdoing has come back to bit them in the ***. I know many people who has had bad Karma on them. They will also continue to have it, if they don't stop being ugly. My mil is a prime example of bad Karma. Everything that she has done to me, has came back to haunt her.

Yes.
I hurt someone many years ago. I was hurting, myself, but I pushed away a man who truly loved me. I sought refuge and peace in alcohol and other men.
That was over 25 years ago and I have never found peace or love since.
I do not believe that karma carries over into other lifetimes, we reap what we sow while we are here now.

Karma, the Threefold Law, "reaping what you sow" - it's all basically the same principle. It is simply a natural law of the Universe.
BTW Yes, I believe it to be true.

Real Christians does not rely on his surroundings. They rely on God.
Matthew 22:37 Jesus said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.
Matthew 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.
Karma (bad things) is no effect in Christians.
1John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

No. What goes around never comes around me. It's as simple as that. Some people are of the opinion that is completely unfair.;)
