I think i deserve a decent life. In all seriousness. I feel that I have done more good than bad. But at the same time I probably deserve some sort of cancer aswell lol. Maybe my gentlemen skillz will give me enough little points to outweigh the big bad voodoo.

I think good, bad, karma, etc. are concepts generated by humans to explain their actions and to have leverage to tell others what to do. There is no right and wrong. There's only mine and yours, and the strongest will win.

You say that like you know when its only your opinion. To say there is no right and wrong is saying that you are absolutely positive that there are no such things as real standards and absolute truth. Making such a bold statement requires a bit of justification I believe.

I agree. We think about things way too much. Though if people feel like they deserve cancer, then they must feel pretty guilty for something. Why don't you do something about it instead of just accepting some disease that you are likely to get eventually anyway.

I think we all have done something that we should be punished for. And yes, we all will be punished.

In today's culture nobody believes in standards. Examples are all around us. Men no longer act like men and women, lets not get into that.
Either way, honor, respect, and hell, every standard, has been thrown out of the window in the name of being "Politically Correct".

Everything a person does or is signifies their final opinion.

The strongest has always won in all situations under all circumstances. And this will always be so. And even if God sends you all to Hell for doing things he believed as "bad", that just proves my statement. God is stronger than you, so he can send you to places if you don't agree with his specific vision of existence.
Real standards and absolute truth are concepts that I saw no proof of nor logic in.

I don't see anything bold about that statement.
Look up the concepts of Absolute truth......the philosophy of plato, aristotle.....ethics...morals..All of these things have been the focus of philosophers since the beginning of time. There is actual research to be done on the subject. Its a bold statement because people have spent their entire lives learning about that stuff and they cant deduce a clear answer, and then you make the statement shows a lack of concern for others ideas on the topic. Thats why it's a bold statement.
And if you wana get into the God thing, if a god created the universe then he would make the laws, which include ethical laws and they are therefore standards. We have physical standards that can always be applied who are you to say we dont have moral standards?

And all of these things simply signify the qualities of a stronger force.

I don't see how he had to make any ethical laws at all. He could have just made us. Just as we make a video game, without any weird "ethical" laws.
There is no such thing as a physical standard. There is a physical law. Standard? You made up a term to make the other parallel with it.
There is absolutely no proof of the existence of absolute truth, moral purposes, or anything of that sort. It is simply that concepts that tend to be a certain way win over the other concepts. And since the concepts that won created us, we persevere those concepts as positive, ethical, moral, good. That's all there is to it. The rest is human stupidity.
Okay, Equinox, your first two responses to Umpa are just flame. Its as if you like to argue, because your responses to him completely miss the point of what he's trying to say. Please, don't quote every single part of his post and only reply like that. Just quote his post as a whole and adress his post appropriately, its less flammable that way.
and if your looking at philosophy of ethics and morals, take a look at mappes and aquinas. just saying...
Aquinas??whats that? Karma might not be real but it does seem to come around sometimes lol

you are right, he would be an important person to study, im definitely gonna look into it. Your totally right, theres tons i dont know and im not gonna make decisions on stuff like ethics and religion before im well read. I think its important to understand all these things before we make decisions...speaking of hardcore research..

Karma only really works if you believe in a God to some extent - unless you believe in some other type of being... perhaps called Mr. Karma who gives razor blade candy too little children for pissing of their parents
