I wasn't looking to Wikipedia for Buddhist stuff, but it's a good source for people who're wondering what I mean when I say "just world fallacy."

I guess the whole "karma" thing seemed like something that I couldn't rightly just toss away, but personally I kind of would like to. I'd like to chuck the whole karma thing because it can lead to victim-blaming, and it's the only area of Buddhist teaching where I see potential problems down the line. The teachings on suffering and compassion are rad and I find them helpful, but I wasn't sure if I could just keep those.

But I guess if the idea of karma isn't totally essential, that makes things easier on me. Thank you for your response, as it was really useful. Glad to know that there are other people who don't feel a need to pull in the supernatural elements.

Out of curiosity, is there anybody around here who does include the karma teachings who has a perspective for me on how they avoid some of the pitfalls I'm worried about?
