fake, No. I'm just saying; according to the Word; there's a price for NOT doing so. It's only right for me to warn people; because I care. If I DIDN'T care; i WOULDN'T warn others. See how that works?.

There is no spiritual responsibility to be relieved of. That's a man made concept used to control people. I have responsibilities to obey the laws, treat others with respect and love, and be the best person I can be. They are civil responsibilities, not spiritual ones.

In one sense it's a freedom from the responsibility of considering God's viewpoint.(since there is no reality behind it, only myth)
But on the other hand, it involves the taking on board responsibility for one's own actions.
No "God told me to" or " Satan tempted me"
No fixed rules to be obeyed even if they cannot be understood.
It is a real responsibilty, which Sartre saw as mankind being "condemned to be free."
Faced with choices and the responsibility for them.
And no higher authority to rule, to make it easy.
(edit: with respect, you need to read more on what Einstein believed. "knew there was a "god" an intelligent source of SOME kind." is a significant mis-representation.)

I deny the concept of 'spiritual responsibility'.
Your question assumes that there is a god and that he will be punished, in life or the after death, for denying his existence. If this person does not beleive in god, they don't fear the punishment in a god they don't believe it. So, from your point of view, "Yes", from their's, "No".

The fact of God's nonexistence relieves one of "spiritual responsibility".

if you cared about the human race, or even just about the earth, you would have a lot of responsibility. you couldnt just sit back and wait for god to do yuour work for you.

I don't have belief in God... are you saying I am not allowed to have no belief in God or something?...because if you are saying that then you are being extremely aggressive, arrogant and tyrannical.
Your belief is making you angry and unpleasant.

"spiritual responsibility"?
What is that, exactly?
When you use it, it sounds suspiciously like "belief in the christian god"....
