I'm Just Trying to be a Better Person.

[Gripper]

I believe that if I'm nice to people, people will be nice back. If I'm honest about everything, people will be more honest with me.

That's why I said 'of course'.

I don't have to believe the Miriam Webster version of karma, Google boi.

I didn't Google, boi. You must have.

Do you believe that if you are honest to person A that person W will be honest with you?

I mean I get the "I was nice to person A, person A will be nice back." I'm talking person A/W that have nothing to do with each other.

Do you not believe in anything that you can't see or prove...faith mate,faith

Absolutely.

[ziggyjuarez]

Absolutely not

Why?Dont you know science cant prove everything?Atleast not at this point in time.It's more psychological then anything else.

[Busyman]

Absolutely not

Why?Dont you know science cant prove everything?Atleast not at this point in time.It's more physiological then anything else.

You should address that to the numerous atheists on the board.

Physiological?

Ok then.

I hear this scenario all the time where some fella knocked someone over the head and took his money.

A year later a piano drops on head and he dies.

And then "Seeeee, that shit came back on him from when he stole that money."

Here's another..What if the guy never stole money?

Answer: Well the piano probably dropped on his head for some other shit he did.



I guess even in the absence of belief in God we humans will find comfort in something.

I was rodding you because you hate being pulled up about googling.

As for being nice to person A correlating with person W being nice back to you - well, provided person A isn't a deaf, blind mute; good word spreads just as quickly as bad. They don't have to be connected to each other - just by proxy.

Being good to people as a general principle means that it's more likely that people are going to do good stuff back to you - not a guarentee or anything but it's better than the alternative. I call that karma.

Other people might call it something else, I duno.

I hear this scenario

Are you talking about people in gereral
Because i dont relate to what your saying.I think the piano fell on him because a piano fell on him

It's word of mouth.

It's what made me see The Sixth Sense when I previously wouldn't have.

It also helps businesses and stuff.

I'm nice to people just because. If I help someone I'd do it with the comfort of no one else finding out about it.

I had this debate with some folks at work.

It's a common saying, "What goes around come around."

I believe, "Not necessarily."

manker's belief is actually sensible. It's how some businesses do well. It's a direct correlation.

Some people make a correlation between 2 disparate events. They never link in any way besides the fact of the bad/good deed done and the perceived reward/punishment. This is what I disagree with.
