No, karma does not have to do with religion.
Nor does luck.
They are a balance of greed/share/bad/good.


Proof?

Not true at all.
Answer my question or don't post at all.
I believe that luck is much like karma.
A balance.
If you say karma isn't real, i'll laugh.
karma is real and does happen to people.


Karma isn't real...you use the word to describe a certain situation of events that coincidentally happen like.....you steal some lady's purse and then 4 days later she wins the lottery and you get robbed. But that isn't "karma's" doing, it's called random

How does science Explain Luck?


Luck isn't real. Its your mind trying to make sense of complete randomness.

a few people are lucky throughout their life, some poeple are less lucky, most people are normal, some people have bad luck throughout their life, a few people are very unlucky.

i.e. normal distribution

yet, i will keep options open, this is because i cant think of a way to quantify "luck", and thus no statistic test could be done, i would just say the idea "karma" is unlikely

sometimes yeah what goes around comes around. but what about the nice people who live their life to the fullest each and every day that get shot for no reason?

or the bad people who murder others and get away with it for the rest of their lives? karma is kind of bullshit

It's blatantly obvious - everyone knows that people who exploit the poor and spread misery end up making millions of dollars, while people who live a life of charity and goodwill end up broke as fuck.
