The Difference of Opposition and Retribution

"There is opposition and there is retribution, and it's hard to tell the difference sometimes, but I have found in my life that opposition takes the form of outside influences trying to affect your job or circumstances while retribution comes in the form of direct effect. Wreck your truck, that is retribution. Someone tries to get you in trouble, that is opposition." -- MarkP

The SGI has apparently stifled even your imagination...going off into a ditch, hitting a telephone pole, skidding on ice into a fence, rolling over..

Complete the sentence:

I found this article useful in a paper I am writing at university. Hopefully, I get an A+ now!

In order for your truck getting wrecked to retribution wouldn't you have to have wrecked someone's truck? I don't find that to be what Mark P is saying.
I believe in cause and effect.
Because you are such a hateful idiot (cause)
I think Kempon Hokke is possibly the worst religion in the world (effect).

Not the Buddha Clown, cause and effect. I forgot, you don't believe in cause and effect. You will.

Because if the Buddha doesn't like something you say he wrecks your truck. This is his activity as parent, teacher, and sovereign truck wrecker.
