You forgot to state how king David reaped wat he sew. Or u don’t remember wat his son did to him because of wat he did to another man’s wife? God forgave him but he reaped it still. Karma is so so real. Even around us, we see it all the time. God may not count or hold that sin against u after u repent but u still reap it on earth here most times.
Exactly

Karma exists but it's not what religion is teaching. It means that people don't actually understand what it is.

Do you hear those mass shooting in Europe or America?
Those are descendants of those who murdered innocent people hundreds of years ago to take over land that doesn't belong to them. And though it happened hundreds or thousands of years ago but parents already passed the traits of mudderers to their children. Their children would continue to be blood thirsty until they free, redeem or save themselves.

This includes those Africans you see today selling their children. Those are descendants of those that participated in slave trade. Their descendants are doomed to want to sell or enslave another human being.

Yes, you shall reap what you sow.

Unfortunately, if such a descendant comes from a wealthy family, they'll oppress people with their wealth. And if they're politician and leaders, they'll sell you out and take money and put inside their pockets. Their bloodline would continue that way down the line, until they free, save, redeem themselves.

Buy the way, that's the true context for being "saved" as understood by the ancients but which has been misunderstood and bastardized by religion.

Nobody can redeem or save you but yourself.
So, how are they going to redeem themselves, by simply deciding not to continue with the traits anymore?

Some things are not just balance in this our world. As far as I'm concerned, it's an opinion and not a fact! The world keeps changing and several factors influence karma.

Karma works only on poor people.

Very erudite.
Karma is one of the ridiculous religious scams. Buddhism itself was created to pacify the poor by convincing them that their deplorable plight in life is their own fault and not a symptom of the inequity in society. Tradition claims that the creator of Buddhism was a wealthy prince who took a “vow of poverty” and created nonsensical beliefs for the poor.
His bright idea wasn’t to improve the lot of the poor but to blame them for their own misery and call it “karma”. Karma my ass.

It doesn't. Evil people keep progressing and succeeding in what they are doing while the righteous ones suffers.


Karma ... evil people are prospering .... will they prosper for the rest of their lives? Some evil people prosper for years .... but before their death ... the sufferings no be here.

Most times when I see people be doing "evil things" I just know it is a matter of time before they suffer. Seen that happen to soo many people. Ref... two guys I knew .... players .... in their prime used to "wreck" girls and brag about it. Later in life ... one suffered badly for years... some sort of cancer... extreme pain and shittings 24/7 . The other.... he got mouth cancer.... to the extent that the roof of his mouth was no more... he really punished before he died. I strongly believe karma exists ... somehow ... regardless of the precautions one takes ... somehow... something will happen and sufferings will come before death.

Exactly!

It's as simple as deciding one day within yourself that you're not going to continue this way. Then, you change for real BY MATCHING IT WITH ACTION (not words) in the way you live your life, in fact, when you do that everyone around you would know that you've changed, without you saying a word.

You do not need a church or pastor to do that. You do not need a mosque or Imam to do that. All you need is be honest to yourself wherever you are. When that happens, the cells in your body would acknowledged it, change, and override whatever you inherited. You've now freed yourself and you'll then pass on the new "saved" traits to your children and children's children.

And that's what is called being born again, which is why ancient people likened it to the snake shedding it's old skin and assuming a new bright body. It's also the reason ancient people used the snake to symbolize the savior or redeemer who saves. This was millions and thousands of years in the age of spirituality before religions..

See the book of Numbers chapter 21 verse 8-9 or if you need in depth details, go to www.africason.com and read the article "what is Satan? What is Lucifer? The biggest secret in the world"

Yes, karma exists.
A Nigerian senator embezzled fund for world class hospital in his state and many people died in the act of fraudulent practice. God used payback to allow people prayers/curses to come to effect by making his daughter to fall victim of his wickedness and he made plans to rescue his daughter from the destruction he created but karma caught up with him in a land where he could not manipulate their laws. God cannot be deceived whatever a man sows, he reaps. Galatians 6 v7

Karma is a concept that has become increasingly popular in recent times. The idea of karma has its roots in Hinduism and Buddhism, where it is believed that one's actions in this life will determine the quality of their next life. The concept of karma has gained popularity among people who are looking for an explanation for why good things happen to good people and bad things happen to bad people. However, despite its popularity, karma is not real. Here are several reasons why this is the case.

First of all, the concept of karma is not scientific. There is no empirical evidence that supports the idea that our actions in this life will have an impact on our next life. While some people may argue that they have experienced the effects of karma in their own lives, there is no way to prove that these experiences are the result of karma rather than luck or coincidence.

Secondly, the idea of karma ignores the role of external factors in shaping people's lives. In reality, people's lives are shaped by a wide range of factors that are beyond their control, including their genetics, their socio-economic status, and the circumstances they were born into. While our actions can certainly play a role in our lives, they are not the only determining factor in our success or failure.

Thirdly, the concept of karma can be harmful. It can lead people to believe that those who are suffering deserve their suffering because they must have done something to deserve it. This can lead to victim-blaming and a lack of compassion for those who are struggling. It can also lead to a lack of action to address social injustices, as people may believe that individuals who are suffering are simply experiencing the effects of their own karma.

In conclusion, while the concept of karma may be appealing to some, it is not a real phenomenon. Our lives are shaped by a wide range of factors, and our actions are only one part of the equation. Believing in karma can be harmful and can lead to a lack of empathy and action to address social injustices. As such, it is important to approach the concept of karma with a healthy dose of skepticism and to focus on doing good in the here and now rather than worrying about the effects on some hypothetical future life.
Good input. Kudos

Karma exists you just might not see it in the person who committed the crime but for generations to come it will happen and they will get the reward for what their forefathers did.

Karma is already telling on the president elect Tinubu and all his money he's using it to manage his health now. With the challenge he's facing with his health now he might not even finish his term before he pass on.......
