"Karmic Conspiracy Theory"

I am back for a rare Sunday post. I was just struck by something, well it was more struck by a thought. The thought originated as a result of the earthquake in Indonesia that occurred this morning or yesterday morning (damn time zones have me confused as to a frame of reference). Is there something karmic going on, something very bad, perhaps.

Look at the evidence. Late in 2004, they get absolutely NAILED by a tsunami. Then between now and then, there have been a number of earthquakes (I will give you that it is such a dispersed island land mass, that's an archipelago for you folks, and the quakes have occurred all over, which on second thought reinforces my "karmic conspiracy theory"). Now, we have the current quake which was devastating. As well, there is a volcano that has been acting up and due for a full scale eruption at any time (the comes complete with tremors, earthquakes and the ever present belching of poisonous gases, makes you wonder what "Mother Nature" eats when she is releasing such noxious gas).

Add it all up and I am left to wonder what Indonesia has done to bring such despair on to itself. I know it is like blaming the victim, but I am still left to wonder. I do have a theory but it would be impolitic to discuss. Just why is karma doing this to poor Indonesia? Ponder it if you will. Ciao!
