I meant no offense with my post. It's only that many "Westerners" tend to hold "Eastern" philosophies in such high regard, while ignoring (or even ridiculing) the faith they were raised in - even when both are saying the same thing. (I wonder if some teens in India embrace Christianity just to piss off their Hindu parents?)
Whether there's a force which requires balance, or a God who rewards and punishes, I do not know. It does seem to me that there are those who do good who are not rewarded and those who commit vile acts who "get away with it" and die happy. Of course, the tables could be turned in the next life, but I don't know about that either.
