I do so I stay away from doing anything bad. I'm scared of it coming back to me. Have you ever done something bad and have karma get you? Care to share what you did and what happened to you that felt like it was karma. Thanks.

I don't believe in karma, in fact I am a free thinker but I do strongly believe in moral values and virtue. To me those karma is just mambo jumbo that people create in religion for the follower to be nice. If you see in the scientific perspective there are no prove of karma let alone prove of god. I rather believe in saying such as "if you treat people nicely , people will treat you nicely." . I don't see thing happen because of karma , so I dont' have any karma story but this is a story where " I help people , people thanks me for that" -- There is this one time I help a person fix a computer and he give me a chocolate as appreciation.

I didn't used to believe in Karma, But I am beggining to becasue I think some of the crazy stuff I did when I was tounger is coming back to haunt me. I was a bad kid and ran away from home, Worried my mom sick, and got married when I was 16 years old. I think I am paying for some of that now! So I guess the answer is YES

I believe that no matter how hard I try to keep doing anything bad, I will always end up doing bad things from time to time. Sometimes it's on purpose, sometimes it's not. To me it's an inevitable part of my life being a sinful human. So, the only way I get through this is by leaning on God's grace. He says through the Bible that He has redeemed my sins, the past ones, current's and the future's. Through my life experience I know that although there are always consequences to go through because of my bad doings, God has somehow turn it into good things in my life and I no longer dread my past sins. Once I treated my boyfriend really badly, shooting critism full of judgment, it must have hurt him a lot. God then showed to me how bad my act when I was treated by my sister the same way I did to my boyfriend. Even to almost every word! Scary and sad as I was when I realized what I did to my boyfriend, I felt grateful because it's like God is helping me to change my bad behaviour. That's why I no longer see what you might so called 'karma' as bad things anymore. God's grace is abounding every 'karma'!

No I don't think it is real. I do good things and sometimes bad things happen to me. I'll do something bad or stupid and good things happen to me. I know people that have done bad things all their life and good things seem to happen to them. So no, I don't think it's real and thats's my resoning.

yes i believe in karma. whatever we do to others it will come back to us. life is like an echo. you get what you give. for every act there is a consequence. there are instances in my life that i have done some bad things to others. i am not perfect and ive had my lapses. and believe me sometimes what i did to others, other people did that to me too. the good thing however is that for every good thing i do, i also get good karma.

I have always believed in Karma. What goes around, comes around. I always treat people with respect. My daughter did not listen to me when I told her my sis in law was bad news. She found out the hard way and apologised to me for not listening to me. My sis in law cost my daughter a weeks work as she is only on casual rates that means she lost a weeks pay.

I guess they always say what goes around comes around hence karma! I am a very open minded and kind and caring person so i tend to try to hurt people in a bad way! Thankfully i tend to always do onto others as i myself would like done onto me!

i do not believe in that , , in my religion , , there is no such thing as karma ,, karma , , is a term that most people misuse , , it has a deeper meaning , , it's not simply doing bad and after a couple of days, or weeks, or months, or years , , something bad is going to happen to you , , i read that karma happens in another life , , if you have been good in this lifetime , , you will be a prince or a rich person in the next lifetime , , but if not , , you'll be a cockroach , , or a slave , , that's what it is , , so i don't believe in that , ,
