Nobody else, God or anybody, makes anybody be born with bad karma (or 
good karma, for that matter) -- the karma one generates is strictly 
one's own responsibility. The whole principle is simple, and 
Westerners have been exposed to it from an early age:  "whatsoever a 
man sows, that shall he also reap." This is about as simple a 
principle as there is: if you generate waves of happiness in your 
surroundings, you will get happy karma back; if you generate waves of 
unhappiness, you'll get unhappy things happening to you. Don't want 
to believe it? Fine, but it's a very obvious feature of the 
environment which has been commented upon by many religious teachers. 
Sure, being born with AIDS seems very rough, but haven't you watched 
films depicting the many brutal things people do to other people? If 
there is any justice in the universe, then those wrongdoers get to 
suffer just like they made others suffer. Not only is it a matter of 
justice, bad karma is more important as a stick to encourage people 
to stop wrongdoing and get on the path of evolution -- nobody will 
ever cease to be, so it's important that they learn how to live 
without making others suffer.
