[Buddha-l] Re: RE: Problems with karma

[Mitchell Ginsberg]

Hello all at Buddha-L, 
Was there anywhere where Buddhist teachings say that everything that happens, 
or even merely everything that happens in the human realm, is a function of 
karma, that it is all the result of karma, that it can be entirely explained in 
terms of (earlier) karma? 
I am aware of passages that state that karma is only one of eight factors that
can bring about subsequent states of affairs, so am not sure why we would 
want to put such of a demand on the concept of karma as this "all is but
the fruit of karma" perpective. 
All comments invited! 
in peace, 
Mitchell Ginsberg
