Chapter 6 presents an argument that the ancient concept of moral consequences, often called the "law of return" or karma, operates through discoverable natural mechanisms rather than merely superstition. It uses the personal transformation of a skeptical engineer named Maria to introduce the idea that investing positive energy in the world results in positive returns, then investigates this phenomenon using frameworks from multiple scientific disciplines. Specifically, Baggett explores how spiritual cause and effect might be explained by thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, social network theory, and biology, suggesting that positive actions generate returns through enhanced energy flows, improved probabilistic outcomes, positive social feedback loops, and better physical health. Ultimately, the chapter contends that the universe is structured to favor positive energy circulation, making ethical behavior a sophisticated form of systems optimization.
