Taoist Karma

| No Comments | 1 TrackBack

The Taoists have an interesting concept of karma.

“The more good you do, the more good you want to do. The more evil you do, the more evil you want to do.”

That is, its not that bad things happen to bad people, as much has doing bad things makes you a worse person.

There's little moral distinction in Taoism, they consider the evil path as valid as the good path or the true neutral.

What they don't like is compromise being occasionally good or occasionally evil.

Like being a pacifist, yet praising Saddam Hussein or Osama Bin Laden.

Or believing in the war, but not believing in foreign aid...

Hmmm... How did Iraq get in here? This was supposed to be about Darth Vader...Oh, I remember.
