That there is an individual consciousness and it is born again and again presents a difficulty as to who decides its karma as a consequence of which it is born into evil and good wombs. That it is born according to its good and bad karmas presents a difficulty as to who decides about it as you yourself cannot. If there is no God , I don't see how it could be determined what is good or bad , as the definition of this differs from society to society. I think the logic behind all this is faulty and as I said earlier you may as well believe in ghosts and ghouls.
