Insanity in many instances is living in a deluded reality of ones self and surroundings and could cause paranoia which makes one quite a bit different....Though it could also be a chemical imbalance or disease. I'm not sure Karma works like that, but I'm not an expert of Karma.
If Karma in ones last life was what? What would cause a person to be diseased in the next life?

I believe Karma merely decides your station in the next life. Only your actions in life could lead to being infected by a disease.

Oh, I don't consider insanity to be a disease.
Why would Karma cause insanity? I have no idea. Possibly it could be seen as the ultimate punishment as it would seem to prevent the actions needed to advance. Alternately it could be said that people judged to be insane are in fact much closer to nirvana than anyone else.
insanity isn't a disease, its a mental state of being but syphilis is a disease and he did have it, it affects the mind that doubled with influences he had while growing is what brought what happened around, thats the only reason D-day even succeeded, had he not had syphilis things probably would have come out much differently, and we might not have had to have a D-day ever happen then.
One only has to look at footage of the people who were tortured during the holocaust to see evil.No human being should ever have to suffer like those who did during the holocaust.However,if Hitler would have lived around 272 CE,he probably would be considered a saint today by the Christian church.A very sicking thought to consider.
There are some supports still out today of Hitler,On the news is heard that this guy made up a whole store in support of Hitler made of nazi gingerman and some pictures and so on.He is a skin head no doubt and how he was allowed to put something like that up is beyond me!
Why are you however saying that the christens would support him if he live during that time?jm
Because Hitler belived he was in the service of God.Early Christianity has a violent history and it's first emperor was Constatine who was born around that time.Here's a piece of a post I made on the religion forum.You can read more about this in 'The Dark Side Of Christian History' by Helen Ellerbe.
Take the words of Raymond of Aguilers into consideration.Writing of a band of crusaders who deystroyed Muslims and Jews in Jerusalem in the year 1099:
Wonderul things were to be seen.Numbers of the Saracens[Muslims] were beheaded.Others were shot with arrow,or forced to jump from the towers;Others were tortured for several days,then burned with flames.In the streets were seen piles of heads and hands and feet.One rode about everywhere amid the corpses of men and horses.In the temple of Solomon,the horses waded in the blood up to their knees,nay,up to the bridle.It was a just and marvelous judgement of God,that this place should be filled with the blood on unbelievers.
Seeing as how Hitler thought of himself as a man of God,and looking at his gruesome legacy,it becomes pretty apparent in the more primitive days of the church he probably would have been considerd one of Gods warriors.
I don't see no matter what it is always the christens fault.That is abit unfair.Why can't it ever be the Muslims or whatever.Everything is always dump on the christens becaues of people who are judgemental.Blame someone else and they get flamed or insulted.I guess christens today are just a bunch of meat that people can just eat anytime they want or make fun of.That is just nice.jm
Here's a whole post I made about religious intolerance.I don't soley place all the worlds woes upon the Christians.
Thats when religion can get violent and scary.That very same kind of unswaying alligiance is why fundamentalist Christians persecuted many Muslims in the Crusades.Why the Pagans sought to kill out early Christians for their 'evil' belifes.Why Christians then administered gruesome tortures onto the Pagans once they came into power.Why fundamentalist Muslims crashed two plains into the world trade center on 9/11.
Now i'm in no way trying to put down your belief in Christ.I'm not trying to say all Christians are going to commit mass suicide or that all muslims are crazy martyrs.But when any system of belief claims their god,or whatever it is they worship,is supreme and above all other religious systems,that's when the world gets ugly and thats what causes intolerance in religion.
So you asked us if we can handle the truth.Well,the truth is very many different things to very many different people.No two people will answer this question exactly the same and that's a good thing.We don't need mindless zombies all conforming to one belife system.We need diversity in religion,and tolerance for the beliefs of others.So now I will ask you this.
Can you handle the consequence's of what you consider to be the truth?

I do not understand why a child would be born with HIV though, just to die a few years later. I do not see how Karma works here....

That does not require insanity. One could be simply sheltered or naive and this be the case.
I get what you mean but this is seems to almost include different sorts of generalizations one would have about the world.
