Hi Margaret, honey I didn't mean to upset anyone, and I did say that there are about as many different beliefs as there are people believing them, and I did say I wouldn't want to be the judge of whose right or wrong in any given questionable situation. The only point I was inferring to was, who is the one to judge whose right or wrong.
As for the Karma there is equal good as there is bad that comes back from karma, again depending on which one it one chooses, you are the master of your own choices/destiny. Unless this certain individual gets run over by a bus crossing the street. It could still be said that this individual made that choice to cross the street at the wrong time thus this individuals chips were simply called in. Geeee I mean which came first here, the egg or the chicken? Sooner or later there comes a time for everyone to punch out their clocks, I don't know the reason nor do I have the answer for that anymore then anyone else on the surface of this planet does, end of discussion.
Maybe if one could travel back in time to the Garden of Eden and ask Adam and Eve before they got their ever lovin butts kicked out the Garden.
As for all those babies, mommies, daddies, and what ever other innocent life forms like, animals, you know, the ones with 4 legs, wings and fins, and the plant life. Some make it to safety sensing what's coming ahead of time but not all of the critters do, like what about domestic animals? It's the same statistics in wars as well. I wonder if anyone else ever given thought about this other innocent life? Who is to know huh, there are probably others aware of this, but I guess they don't talk about it because their afraid they'll get ridiculed because they might think it to trivial.
And again who has the authority to sit in judgment as to who and what is to be obliterated and killed in such disasters? Man made disasters, like wars, are just irresponsible, greedy, power hungry, selfish, tin god atitudes who care less about the lesser life forms animals, plants, peasants, beggars, slaves, and any of the lower cast, all inclusive, use them, then blow them up pee brain mentalety when their usefulness has expired. **stupidity** "BIG TIME!"
Like earthquakes we are told are caused by the earths crust, tectonic plates, moving one under the other. Volcanoes are caused by the built up pressure of the earth magma below the crust which gets to great and wells up through old fissures in a dormant volcano. Hurricanes happen because of convection currents of warm air created from the surface of the warm waters of the ocean creating an updraft to displace the cooler upper air which creates a spiraling mass of powerful air currents. Thunderstorms, floods, tornadoes are all natural occurrences that can be predicted to a certain degree, but can also get totally out of control within just minutes of their birth.
Natural disaters have nothing to do with karma, just unpredictable natural occurrences. Now I am a we bit shaky and truly I get some what skittish and nervous around the subject of God and why would this God allow such things to happen. But then again the black, and white, negative and positive, the dualities of nature there is for every action in all of the elements in the universe there is an equal and opposite reaction, but then there is also an equal synchronous reaction to every action.
A star system in a galaxy goes nova and that galaxy is turned into a huge cloud of nebula gas. In that nebula gas you will find new stars being formed within this dense cloud, and soon the cloud dissipates, revealing a newly born galaxy shining brightly in the universe once again. Things die and things are reborn, it appears to be as close to a perfect order of recycling as there can possibly be in this observable universe. Why not people as well, or any other living thing containing the spark of life, the soul if we may. The soul is eternal, how many life time memories can there be stored in a soul?
Anyway, just some ideas which again makes about as much sense as how ever many other people that dream them up. As good a theory as any until someone comes up with another one.

Who puts those children through that kind of misery hon? I been a social worker for a good many years and I have seen both children and grown up people living on the streets in just awful of a condition as any 3rd world country. Have you slept under make shift lean to made out of blankets? Have you had to use card board boxes for a padding to sleep on? Have you seen people only in their mid twenties to mid thirties with half their teeth missing because of crystal meths.
On the subject of drugs, who is it that places the god forsaken crap in their hands? Who then in turn will sell themselves to keep up the habit. Have you ever worked with mental health recipients? Have you ever worked with recovering alcoholics and addicts? Have you yourself lives on the street? During my stay on the streets, I sat right along side my sisters and brothers and I drank rot gut, cheep liquor and nearly died if it hadn't been for some kind folks helping me. Have you ever been raped? I have. Have you ever lived on an Indian reservation? For five years I was a nanny for nearly every kid on the res. I also had 11 children in my care through the years before and after. You wanna know about children hon? you are very welcome to visit granny Cindy here.
May God Bless.
Cindy
