I have faith that karma

Hi Chris,

Yes, you need faith in the case of Karma because you do not know precisely how it works... it is speculative... but you can have confidence in the working of the four noble truths because they are precisely knowable... What Buddha taught is about to awake... to know... Religion is allways about faith and what Buddha taught is not a religion.
