If you mean this in a 'behavioral' way, I totally agree! If you're nice and open, most people are also nice and open. Or at least you meet more nice and open people. But this is all because of YOUR attitude, not because of 'the Universe sending you these people'. Because THAT would turn them into robots indeed.
As I've also said before: The LoA makes sense in that every action has a reaction. But what is bogus and false is to say that the LoA can be used 'to magically attract people or situations without ANY interference or action from YOUR PART'!

So what you're asking is - am I saying that those little girls only have themselves to blame for attracting that cruelty into their lives. Of course not.

So you're not excluding that they have to blame themselves at least partly?? That they're not the victims of ancient traditions and rituals but that they somehow want this for whatever insane reason?

But isn't this in contradiction to my assertion that our free will ultimately determines what we attract into our lives? Only if you hold that your conscious mind is the sum total of your being.

That's the magical cop-out again!

Therefore when a 2 yr old attracts inexplicable suffering into her life, its on the basis of what her spritual component is attracting - where healing is required - and it (fairly or not) becomes the responsibility of the physical person to address.

Well, the suffering is explicable (traditions, rituals, society).
But if I've understood you correctly then the spirits or souls or whatever of these little african girls are attracting the people who mutilate their genitals in order that their celestial components can grow?
I'm sorry, but that's just sick now.
