Do you believe in karma. I honestly am not sure about karma. Those of you who do not know what karma is.
Karma is when someone does something bad to someone else and the person who did the bad thing will later experiance the same bad thing to him/herself in the future.

Yes, I do believe in it. After having experienced karma with my Mother-in-law. She has been very mean during the years since I met her son. She has done awful things to me, and it has came back on her. I have seen it all. I could write a book about what happened....

Okay first to answer your question I do believe in karma. Second I think you have not fully understood the actual definition of karma. Here is what Merriam Webster's definition is:
"The force generated by a person's actions held in Hinduism and Buddhism to perpepuate transmigration and in its ethical consequences to determine the nature of the person's next existence."
The transmigration I believe in either religion is referring to reicarnation (from one soul/body to the next). But here is how I view karma and it is similar in all religions. The two I am most familiar with that have similar codes of conduct are in Chritianity the basic golden rule you always here "Do unto others as you would have done to you," and in Wicca "And it harm non do what thou will."
And as for the part of the definition about the nature of ther person's next existence I view that as who you become next in your life. Not in your next life, but the life you have now. You are not the same person as you were ten years ago, and you will be different in ten more years. This is karma working based up the actions you do today and it's (ehtical) consequences for your future self.
So God Bless and Blessed be. We are who we are meant to be.
