What does it matter? We're all the same. We get up each day with the sun in our eye, a bladder full, and we put our pants on one leg at a time.[/b]

All religions are exclusive. Every religion has its starting points and its deductions, and those starting points exclude. For example, Hinduism has two non-negotiable beliefs: karma and reincarnation. No Hindu will trade these away.

Not sure why you feel the need to do that, get caught up in semantics and looking for contradictions, rather than simply giving your opinion to the idea that 'reaping what you sow' (or karma) is common across most religions.

I get that you don't like the expression 'pay the price' so move on dude. Clearly my intent was in line with karma, and that ...[text shortened]... you never linked to that part of my post).

The confusion, and obfuscation, is all yours sir.

My OP stated:

' Does the modern Christian not believe that mankind has paid the price for the original 'bad karma' and that they were saved as a result of the 'good karma' of Jesus and his atonement?'

The above clearly shows that by 'paid the price' I meant 'had to reap what was sown' and that any saving or 'debt repayment' was done by Jesus ...[text shortened]... on that) your posts are just an irritation and if anyone is trolling it's you. (My thread dude).

Of course it could be that GoaD isn't trolling at all and simply lacks the wherewithal to keep from making idiotic and contradictory claims. More's the pity.

Your unpleasant character is also there for all to see, and if karma is real dude, you're coming back as a wasp.

🙂 Hey, my humour is finally rubbing off on you.

Now Joe, if we were to view karma as synonymous with 'reaping what you sow' (that bad deeds come back to get you) would you be willing to concede a convergence between Hinduism and Christianity when it comes to the concept of being accountable for the good and bad things we do in life? (I'm not asking you to accept reincarnation or give up anything Christian).
