Yes. God tortured and killed more people than Hitler, so you can blame him for pretty much anything and people will think it's ok.

Cop out. YOU made yourself the sinner. God has, meanwhile, offered you both forgiveness thru Jesus' sacrifice on the cross and power to obey Him thru the Holy Spirit (if you accept Him into your heart and life). God has done everything you need to enable you to obey Him. You need merely take hold of what He has provided. Consider the ball to be in your court.

Free will is a cop out for those that have no knowledge of how the brain=behavior. People who are either too lazy or stupid to comprehend neurobiology tend to use the free will excuse.

Sure you could. And the reason you could try to use that faulty reasoning is because God gave you free will, and you've been blessed with the ability to think and act as you choose.

its a cop out, you choose your own actions - the devil didnt make you do it nor did God make you that way. You did it all on your own - when are you goig to stand up and hold yourself accountable for your actions.

No. You are not allowed to use God of what you are doing. Your behavior depends of your upbringing in your whole family and in your school when you were still young. It is how you were grown to be by your parents.

yea it's a copout.
God made you yes, but he also gave you the ability to think and reason for yourself - to determine to improve yourself.
I once knew a woman who was anal about everything - to the point of it affecting her health.... her excuse was "God made me like this"... there wasn't any way to convince her that she could change in ways that were both good for her health and didn't necessarily compromise her lifestyle.

Cop out. Each of us were created as free moral agents. We can chose our path but must take responsiblity for our actions.

I guess if enough people do it that makes it right.
That's the way it seems anyways...so many believe something and think it's the one truth.
The world was flat for how long?

When you stand before God and say You made me that way. Just how far will that get you?
