Individually we have no control over what happens in this world but as the human race we have all the control over what happens.

Yes we are all to blame. The fact is as much as we say we are Christians and try our endeavor best to act in a manner that depicts the teaching of the Bible, we too can affect negative behaviors in the world and our actions are sometimes just as bad as the unbeliever. That is why we refuse to believ that there is not life after death because there must be a better world out there somewhere.
God bless

If you do something bad, you are to blame. You are not to blame for everything else that is bad. I would like to mention, though, that the vast majority of bloodshed in this world has been over which invisible man are better than another...ridiculous.

My initial reaction is to say that yes, Religious people are to blame, but not for reasons that you think. For reasons unseen: a prayer unsaid, a worldly distraction that keeps us from our duties, which is done out of love of God, giving in to someone's jeering, and not accepting it as part of the package.
Prayer keeps the world together. Lack of prayer causes it to fall apart. Poor world, so dependent upon us fragile humans!

I refuse to take the sins of the whole world on my shoulders. Jesus has already done that. I am responsible for what I do. Each person is an individual with choices to make both right and wrong. To be responsible for another's sins is to take away that person's free will. God would not have us do that. "Am I my brother's keeper?" asked Cain.

I've been known to compare the human race's impact on the planet to scabies. More of an infestation than a symbiosis.

We are all to be blamed for not caring enough, but I wouldn't say equally.
If we cared more, we'd be able to figure out how to solve at least some of the man-made problems.

We are not to blame equally, as there are those who make an unequal amount of trouble for the world.

Sin entered the world through one man, Adam.

Exactly. As long as we can point the finger at our leaders, our country, our global society, and say, "See, it's THEM, not Me!" the problems will remain.
"Nationalism is simply one of the effective ways in which the modern man escapes life’s ethical problems. Delegating his vices to larger and larger groups, he imagines himself virtuous; the larger the group the more difficult it is to fix moral responsibility for unethical action." - Reinhold Niebuhr
Peace to you.
