Folks,

Why SO COMPLICATED??

It is VERY SIMPLE. Any system that has MEMORY or SOMETHING to accumulate EFFECT has Karma.

Does a car has Karma?? Does a car REMEMBER how well you treated a car??

If you take care of a car and change oil regularly, it would not have a SERIOUS UNEXPECTED breakdown. If not, the lack of care and maintenance until a point where the car will cause you problem.

This is Karma.

Ditto, on a country level, if country A and B have good relationship, the MEMORY / good Karma accumulated. If country A is in trouble, country B is most likely to help...

And, so on....

Any system that has MEMORY aka capability to store effect has Karma. Culture / history has ability to store Karma across hundred / thousand of years.

This does not even go up to Metaphysical level aka spiritual level yet.

It is VERY SIMPLE. Karma exist for ANY SYSTEM with memory...

I don't buy it. Good and Evil is based on how you look at it. For example, I find someone doing evil for a greater good isn't wrong. About the cycle, it's actually pretty much natural. The predator who preys on a prey will get eaten by a greater predator. And this greater predator will get eaten by another greater one. This list goes on and on... Kill or be killed, It's the same concept, but I guess you can call it " civilized ".

Psychology,

<<The predator who preys on a prey will get eaten by a greater predator.>>

When a lion is no longer hungry, it will not kill. It only hunt for food.

Now, what do you call a PREDATOR that only hunt for fun?? Killing for the sake of killing. Is it NOT evil??

<<Good and Evil is based on how you look at it.>>

Yes or no. Some kind of good and bad is based on certain POV. Others are just BAD / EVIL.

<<For example, I find someone doing evil for a greater good isn't wrong. >>

Which is just your POV. Or some people believe the END justify the MEAN.

To the EXTREME, the Spanish Conquistador believe that if Indians do not convert but they kill them in the process of forcing them to convert, they are sending them to heaven.
