Ever wonder what the Jewish-Christian expression "God is not mocked" means? If there's no God, at least no God of the sort described by Jews and Christians as omnipotent and omniscient (something dismissed as untrue by the Buddha in a very theistic world of subtle complexity expressed in the voluminous Vedas or "Knowledge Books" of ancient Proto-India known as the Indus Valley Civilization), how do results reach a living being?
Israel's crimes are CIA and US crimes |
- Judaism does not emphasize karma (the idea of reaping what we sow, getting a kind of fruit depending on the sort of seeds we plant by our deeds of body, speech, and mind), preferring to think that God can be argued and reasoned with before He doles out consequences. The emphasis is on something many Old Timey religions (i.e., the three Abrahamic faiths) make much of instead: beshert (a Talmudic date with destiny) or kismet ("fate" or "predestination")
- Jewish belief in fate, destiny, chance, God's capricious and arbitrary will or whim: translation question on "kismet"? : r/Hebrew (reddit.com)

What is wished for when we steal? Greed (craving, desire, hoarding, grasping, lust, avarice, liking) is motivating us. Then we have the thing wished for, the thing stolen. Are we satisfied, are we pleased, are we now ahead on the great scoreboard of life? We would seem to be, but no we are not. And the act (deed, karma) has NOT yet produced its results (whether mental resultants/vipaka or fruit/phala). So it SEEMS to have worked:

The Truth is true whether or not we believe it. |
Beware of promoting Israel by biblical genocide. |
Look at this poor guy, a regular Zionist Jew doing his militant/terroristic duty to the state -- mandatory military service, given the intoxicating power to abuse and kill his neighbors in fear and loathing. What will be the result. We can begin to see what it will be. Listen to him, how glorious his patriotism and bravery, his manliness and machismo, his popularity with the girls inducted into the same army as lures for men to follow.
