It is magical thinking- irrational nonsense - to believe in karma, law of attraction (whatever that is), soul mates, invisible gods, ghosts, zombies, Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, etc.

From Psychology Today, a great article on magical thinking:

I don't believe in magic, or anything supernatural, but I do believe that actions have consequences, and that if you are mindful of something you want, you are more likely able to make it happen than if you put no thought into it. Also, I've seen plenty of times, people making their own fears come true by worrying about them too much.

Honestly.
Neither.

No but I sure do wish Karma existed.

It's more like our decisions can make certain things more or less likely to happen

No.
But having said that, if you are nice to people they tend to be nice to you, and actions do have reaction, so it is not not that I disbelieve the principle, just the religious and supernatural connotations falsely applied to common sense.

Nope.

I think karma is legit. Say for instance you watch someone making an ass out of themselves and say hateful things, then this person asks you for some kind of help and you say f*** you. That's karma.

I believe in BOTH.

Karma,
No.

Law of attraction has a few definitions but most of them stink of Woo Woo.
No.

Despite what the nay sayers say the law of attraction manifests itself much in the way the placebo effect has real world consequences.
It's real and simple.
First we look at Luck:
When Oppurtunity meets preparation.

If you go about everyday being negative you are unlikely to be prepared to take advantage of opportunities.
If you're positive you're more likely to head into the day prepared to take advantage of an Oppurtunity.
Your mood greatly affects other people and their interactions with you. Which compounds the end result.

I posted this about Karma a while back "From Merriam-Webster Dictionary. - - "Karma" - - "The force generated by a person's actions held in Hinduism and Buddhism to perpetuate transmigration and in its ethical consequences to determine the nature of the person's next existence."
I do not buy it. This is the ultimate let-the-filthy-ruler or crooked-ass-politician (Henry Kissinger for example) who has committed all kinds of atrocities off of the hook doctrine. Christianity shares the same fault, one of a huge number of faults, in that it holds that people will be rewarded or punished in some fanciful afterlife. It takes the responsibility away from society for punishing such behavior, and sublimates it to some abstract non-existent realm . . . . . and, who exactly do you suppose it serves? . . . the very people who do the atrocities. As long as you believe that they will be punished in some "future existence", you are a lot less likely to hold them accountable in the here and now . . . . and were exactly does that get you and them? No surprise that those in power have so much to gain from doctrines like these, and no surprise that they do what they can to perpetuate and support such belief systems. "

As for the "law of attraction", I think that people get in a funk, where they choose the same kind of partner over and over again, unless they consciously attempt to go against it . . . . in general we are
not much different than animals though, when it comes to attraction.

No. I might make comments "I hope Karma gets that person" But don't think there is a real karma that will. If there is a law for attraction, I don't think I have heard it.

Yes - I consider karma to be natures way of finding balance.

Yes, karma in the sense that our actions have consequences. No, with the idea of a metaphysical score keeper adding up our good vs bad karma and hoping we aren't reincarnated as a stink bug.

Yes i believe in karma because it is the result from our actions.don't matter if god does not exist, the importante is mutual respect and fredom.

Energy is all in the universe

No and no.

Karma implies that there is a cosmic moral balance that maintains itself in some way, and that bad actions and good actions are somehow influenced by this or are what upset this underlying moral order. It's a nice idea but it is also complete conjecture.

As for the law of attraction, it seems to imply something similar. Sure, if you're positive and have ample opportunity, then it is possible to get the things you want. However, belief that the universe will work in your favour implies intent... It's inanimate. It has no intentions.

This question would have made a good poll.

Not even a little bit.

Nope

I believe that karma is self-inflicted.

No. I don't believe in either.

I don’t believe in karma and I don’t know what the law of attraction is unless you are talking about proton & electrons.

I do believe in karma. I think it's very necessary in our existence in our being and it's a part of who we are in the physical sense I think we're all born with it. I know that's an angle that you never think of but it's the truth. At least that's my opinion let me rephrase that. On the laws of attraction I truly believe that it has to do with the the signs speaking of zodiac signs and the feelings deep down that nobody else could reach that that one person could.
