Is mankind on its own?

Most people have distanced themselve so far from God that they can niether see nor hear Him in their lives even though He is acting and talking.
He is not a controller. He gave each a free will. Those who don't want to be His children and have His love and protection are on their own. Since this is their choice, yes, it is their blame.

The world's a jacked because we didnt approach God.
Just like there are barbers in this world but yet, we can see males with long hairs on the streets.
Why do we have to keep on blaming God when the one to be blame is ourselves.

I think your understanding of God is flawed. God is not an external being. God is within all of us. It is not some white guy with a beard sitting on a cloud.
As far as your question are we to blame, I think the answer is yes. We create our own destinies, and take a look at the state of the world.

You are right individually speaking - I feel I am getting closer to him every day. As for humanity in general - the bible tells us that humankind will sink deeper into depravity of it's own free will, not by the work or hand of God. It's up to us to acknowledge him, but he definitely is not ignoring us.
Yes we are to blame.

Having dominion over something in this context truly signifies that, for lack of a better ideal word, we are on the accurate of the foodstuff chain. i don't think of you would dispute that. until eventually you recognize of a organic predator that typically feeds on people as a foodstuff source. (i'm no longer speaking about sharks or bears or lions or tigers which will attack people at the same time as provoked, i'm speaking about animals that use human beings as a first foodstuff source). Granted, we do not continuously (or in many cases) take care of our planet the way we ought. Given dominion over the earth also calls for a particular quantity of duty. we are not the vendors of this planet, in straight forward words its stewards. A steward is an previous english time period meaning someone to blame for the operating of a particular little bit of land, yet who does no longer personal the land. we are given the earth to preserve. If a steward ran the land into the floor, his lord might want to eliminate him at best, or have him performed at worst. As stewards of the planet, shall we want to be better to blame with the elements we've been given, or probability the wrath of our Lord.

I think we distance ourself from God the minute we seperate ourselves from the divine and start seeking God outside ourselves. Then - we spend so much time seeking an external God to fix our problems, that we stop trying to fix the problems ourselves. So I do think we are to blame.

The question is- what are you doing for God? It amazes me how humans think they deserve so much more than God. When it is GOD who made us and can take us out anytime He wants. Until you realize that God is the one who deserves all the glory and praise- you can never have an answer to these questions....you need to break free from yourself- and humble yourself before God.
James 4:6
But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

We have not distanced ourselves far enough from the worship of mythical and imaginary beings; and, yes, mankind is on its own.
