Why do some people have good luck. And others always suffer from Murphy's law? Not saying it is karma, but I believe there are forces at work beyond existing scientific "truth."

yet explain.
I bet the first people looking at the Northern Lights thought they were seeing a miracle sent by God himself. Now we can explain that with science, however.
I don't discount the existance of forces we can not see and don't fully understand, like Gravity for example. What I am however mocking his human beings making up little stories around these forces.
To say that something you do now, today, in this life MAY have some POSSIBLE affect on future events, sure. Possibly.
Running around saying things like "Don't worry, Karma will take care of him!" is utter foolishness.
