NOTE: i chose the word "blame" because i needed a concise way to word the question, i didn't think people would be picking it apart like that

Most of the bad things that happen to us are the result of our (or someone else's) bad decisions. We have free will, and there are consequences for our every action, whether good or bad. I have seen people "blame" God for their divorce (they made a bad choice of partners, or their partner made the decision to cheat, etc) or for their loved one being killed in a car wreck (someone was not paying attention or was driving drunk) or for getting fired (they were lazy or couldn't do their job) or becuse they had to go bankrupt(they spent more money than they earned) So, people don't just blame God for good things, they blame Him for everything.Peace to you.

Because God is the only cause of anything that happens in the world. All other causes are mere proximate causes and cannot explain the entire sequence of happening since time immemorial.

Not true. Some people blame God when bad things happen. Haven't you hear `Oh God , Why me or Why us'

People curse God daily,and blame God for everything that goes wrong.
Only the Christian turn around and praise Jesus Daily.<><

I can only attribute it to Satan. With all the evidence in the Bible, I would think it pretty obvious that God spends at least as much time persecuting sinners as He does rewarding the faithful.

Because it's not like PEOPLE could actually do good things, people like MLK jr., Thomas Jefferson, Nelson Mandela, etc. , no way. Also, it's not like God ever did anything BAD like.. killing millions of people for something they didn't even do.

People usually blame God when bad things happen and tend to ignore Him when good things happen.

Yeah it pisses me off when someone is saved by another person, but when interviewed on T.V. they give god the credit. Never mind the person who risked his life for you.
