I have to live on this planet, so I can't just ignore what's going on around me. It's important for your own maturation process to know that you too can make a difference and not just leave it up to the wizard of oz.

Because if they do good, god did it. If they did bad, the devil made them do it. Nothing they do is their own fault. How convenient.

If you mean that they blame God or the devil for their actions, I suppose it just shows a lack of maturity and the desire to escape the consquinces of bad behavior. OR it may be a way for them to explain away a normally considerd wrong action by a misinterpretation of scripture. Like the guy that killed abortion Doctors and said that the Bible condones it a defence of the innocent or something. The the Bible does condon defense of the innocent, a high law would be the commandment "Thow shalt not Kill".

Most of us do. We not only feel we have take responsibility but also feel we have someone else to answer to, that never misses what we do. No hiding. Can't get away with it. He always sees. And God also holds us responsible. Those that use the devil made me do it are just looking for an excuse. Those that believe that they can do what they want and then just ask forgiveness, are just using a cop out for their conscious, to excuse their actions. God expects us to hold a higher standard and expects us to follow his laws and the laws of the land. They do not conflict.

Religious people take responsibility for their own actions daily by answering to God and abiding by the Holy principles of God. You feel you don't have to answer to know one and that's your problem because of pride. Sin brings forth destruction and Christians will not wallow in it. Do what you will but you will answer to God in the End.

in case you mean that they blame God or the devil for their movements, i think it in simple terms shows a loss of adulthood and the prefer to flee the consquinces of undesirable habit. OR it would desire to be a fashion for them to describe away a usually considerd incorrect action with the help of a misinterpretation of scripture. like the guy that killed abortion docs and mentioned that the Bible condones it a defence of the harmless or some thing. The the Bible does condon protection of the harmless, a severe regulation may be the commandment "Thow shalt not Kill".

Obviously you've never been not-responsible for your actions. Try it, it's a lot of fun. And blaming God for your actions is the easiest way out. Good times, good times.

Religion will kill you, stay away from religion.
Instead develop a relationship with Almighty God through
faith in the Blood of Jesus. Let God be your father and you
be His child.
