This is an interesting question. Your answer is quite good. But it is a vast topic and is something that can be easily misinterpreted. The interesting fact is that, many religion belives Karma.

Yes, every religion believes in Karma, otherwise the there would be no concept of heaven and hell.
I think the term 'Karma' can be misleading. It can be misinterpreted because of its inherent shortcomings. We can see karma as the result of the past deeds and it may be taken as destiny. If everything is written well in advance, then we are not responsible for our deeds because our program made us to do what we did. And if we get bad treatment in life because of our past lives, then this punishment becomes irrelevant because there is no use of punishing someone when he has no idea of his mistake.
Suppose a kid stole his classmate's pencil. Teacher knows it but don't say anything about it at that time. However, after a year he suddenly slaps that kid but don't tell him the reason. Will this action do any good of that kid? Will it not mislead him further? What is the use of this kind of punishment? Certainly, it is not in the favor of the kid or anybody else. So, is the doctrine of karma. It doesn't punish or warn us in the right time but it punishes us when we are totally unaware of our sins and mistakes. So, I think it is not a good system at all. If God has created it, then I would say God has not done a right thing.
Question was not mine. I answered it only.
