you dont get the right to feel insulted, u have been warned...
so, peeps, if you dont believe in god, do you feel that ones that do are delusional?
a lot of people will sight karma or other things as 'he got what he had coming' but i argue that it's all a mathematical randomness that on a small scale might seem like karma
perfect example is: when you play poker and u push with the best hand, a LOT of times, you can predict/be so sure that the card will come that will beat you even if the chance of it coming is less than 1:6. when the card comes, some might argue it as karma, but i argue that its all random, just on a small scale randomness doesn't work

But many religions are made up because people fear the unexplainable, and want to make it so they can explain it so they are not so scared. I mean, who wants to actually think that when we die, that's it? That there is nothing beyond that? Kind of depressing, and scary.

just because some religion has an explanation doesn't mean it's true
most religions over the years in difference civilizations were made to serve special purpose. confucianism in china was very much approved for thousands of years by the kids because it had 2 main principles:
1 women were 2nd class and served men
1st son had all the powr
same was true around europe when church killed many sciencetists when they ddint denounce their discoveries cause the more they find out the more chuich figurerd people will realise that church is just made up of lazy people who don't want to do real work (in those days meant work fields etc) and rather comands people through fear to work for them by giving them food/money etc

But as to the Karma, you're right...for every three things that go good, sometime or another something bad has to happen. It's life. Probability says that even if you roll 3 sevens in a row, you're bound to roll a snakeyes sometime.

p.s my reasons that new religion propped up cause ppl were sick of paganistic ceasars if rome and this was sorta a 'f u' to them that gained momentum for that reason
in reality, paganism probably had more freedoms for a woman than christianity until mid 1920's in the usa!
(obviously there were bad things about pagan religion i am not saying it's the best etc, but just comparing'
