"We do not always reap what we sow."

Do I believe in Karma? I do not. I think that some persons are luckier than others. I think there are injustices in this world (e.g., slavery, antisemitism) that innocent persons have been wrongly subjected to. Jesus suffered unjust treatment. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was murdered. Considering those historical and present events (and others), I do not believe in karma.

Do I believe a person's mental and physical actions lead to consequences? Not always. Some persons have been falsely accused of injustices. Some persons have the support and financial means to get away with injustices. Therefore, a person’s mental and physical actions do not always lead to negative or positive consequences.

Does karma signify the actions of persons in current and previous lives? I cannot answer for a previous life, as I am unsure (I do not think so), but I can provide an answer for the current life. As aforementioned, actions do not always lead to consequences in the current life because of injustices.

Do I believe in karma in the afterlife? I think a person's actions lead to consequences in the afterlife. The price is not paid in a person's present life (no matter how badly a person is treated) because of injustices. Nevertheless, if a higher power sees everything we do (when no one is watching), there might be implications for a person's action in the afterlife.
