It wasn't after Newton apples began to fall or bodies began to orbit. What he did was inventing a concept to describe what's really happening. If one takes into account electro-magnetic effects, bodies wouldn't obey Newton's prediction at least in the thin area they should. One can't argue his theory isn't just. That he was evil or something for letting good people to get injured by falling coconuts. Karma is something almost exactly like this. Buddha didn't invent what's happening out there. He wasn't even invented the concept Karma. Ancient Indians knew how and when Karma works and they even constructed frameworks to predict affects of Karma on people. That's what today we call astrology though some posh people turn down it labeling it as "ගොඩෙයන්ගෙ සුරංගනා කතා". Buddha just understood it much better and created another framework so we can escape this vicious cycle.</blockquote>
