■ Now listen, I am not the churchy or religious type and it seems you know little about life and have no knowledge about esoteric wisdom. The politician you are talking about are humans like you and karma judges you individually. If you as a politician do evil deliberately,have it at the back of your mind that you will die someday and that is when life will pay you back your karma for evil because your soul lives on. Only the body dies. You will reincarnate again to pay for your sins.

But this is clearly a religious idea regarding Karma, so why deny this? What you hold to are religious ideas based on what religion in particular? Buddhism? Hinduism? Which?

Kobojunkie:
There is no truth to that claim. Even among villains, you will find loyalty, friendship, kindness, etc.

2. There is no truth to this claim at all. It is all in our various imaginations. Both those whom we rank as dishonest and those we rank as honest in our minds can enjoy many of the same kinds of relationships with those around them as we do in our own lives.

3. I have not said even a word about money at all.

4. For the most part, I think the meaning we apply to the term "Good character" is mostly subjective from my experience. What many in one particular group or tribe in Nigeria may consider good character may be regarded atrocious by another group in the same Nigeria. So, on the whole, a subjective standard such as that can't possibly be considered a good enough measures of things out in the real world now, can it?

Good character is basically the degree to which you treat people the way you would expect to.be treated if in their shoes. It does not depend on your nationality or religion

You just gave me a subjective definition, yet you expect me not to see it as something depending to a great deal on such factors as even nationality and religion. Come on now!

Nothing like that . What happened to David was God.

There are certain natural laws that have to be obeyed except God intervenes . It is what it is

Absolutely nothing can happen to a holy and righteous man of God without God's permission. David was a holy and righteous man of God. All that happened to Him was as permitted by God Himself.

Still doesn't rule out the place of karma in that situation, david broke some laws he was made to pay for

There was no Karma. Rather all those around him mostly suffered.

When you kill an innocent man and sleep with his wife, you must pay retribution no matter who you are

David did not particularly lose anything. He kept the woman. Sure the woman lost a child, big whoop! People who don't kill anyone also lose children. He had other children with her eventually. He kept his kingdom, his crown until the end. Heck, the Davidic Covenant God made with David was still on. So, let's not tell karmic tales that don't exist here.
