I see your point and would like to add some thoughts of my own
:
and to continue the karma thought with relation to America...I think it is the general idealogy of a nation that determines its cause and effect, its string of consequences on its ride through history. America's progressive ideology highly suggests an atmoshpere of thought that would lead to the manifestastion of wealth, prosperity and creative culture although their is still plenty of poverty here as well. Some cultures (including some American) are tied by their ideology to a cycle that that doesn't promote the ideals of wealth, joyful living, and freedom. Like some Hindu ones, particularly those that include strong aestetic philophies.
BTW Thanks for sharing your thoughts before Yorrick, Ive been bad
and replied to a post at the end of a thread instaed of at the beginning, but the thinking on karma inspired me
Anyway, I really enjoyed reading your response to my initial post.
