Hi all.
I may be wrong, but it seems to me that B.W.B. is suggestive of Karma within a finite framework.

I have always had problems with Karma relevant to the claim that it is a perfectly just law.

As for your emphasis on acting decently within a secular world by utilizing Buddhist principles, I can also appreciate the need not to get into areas that Buddha thought contentious (14 questions, I think); a muddeying of the waters.

That said, it seems to me, that for Karma to operate in any deep cosmic sense , some form of long term, post mortem sentient "reasoning" or whatever, hard to find a word for it, would be neccessary.......
