Bill!,<br/><br/>I think we're largely in agreement with most of the issues
covered in your post, but the one you raised about killing rabbits might be
worth taking a look at. First of all, we can't predict what kind of karma
another person's actions will receive. Karma can only apply to ourselves. So in
the case of someone else killing a rabbit we can't know with any accuracy what
kind of karma will play out in their future (or immediately as the case may
be). But I don't think it hurts to speculate that a person who kills animals
for the simple pleasure of it isn't a person who spends much time in either
meditation or contemplation and probably suffers in all sorts of areas in their
personal life as a result. Even if we saw them apparently having a great and
lucky life you'd have to ask yourself if that is the kind of person you'd want
to be. <br/><br/>Mike<br/><br/><br/>Sent from Yahoo! Mail for iPad
