Default Christianity tries to pin blame on the mass of people, for the troubles of the world,

IF - God created the world and the people and gave them the power of choice and free will, but failed to leave instructions, except for the Torah and the bible, which are riddled with confusion and at the time only few people could read or write and comprehend what they were reading
So why not pin blame on the god the true culprit, and it can't be Satan's fault because god created him and gave him rule of the earth
excuse me by
You are exactly right and the teaching began at the beginning of life and hence if you are a Christian or other god believer that God is the father and the father did a bad job with Adam and eve did he not, he planted the evil and enticed them to eat, but perhaps it was because they were starving that they eat, and if the father of them all would had a women and mother to these children instead of making dirt children, they had no momma
amensSn
metaphor, metaphor
It not that that I lack understand, it the exploitation of the reasoning people in general to believe some story written by someone that was no one, how many people do you think were able to read at the time the pyramids , they could have told them anything they wanted and add some magic

The doctrine of free will is a lie.

God did leave instructions, as well as a living instructor named the Holy Spirit.

All great leaders know that taking credit is no different than taking blame, in all thing God is in charge.

Christians are being blamed.. they are not the ones pinning the blame. TYhe Bible may be confusing to you... but for me it is very clear.God is not the culprit. As you said, God gave them a choice. The Bible didn't exist in Adam and Eves time, so God walked and talked with them. He explained it very clearly and they chose Satans way. So sin fell on the earth. They certainly were not in the dark about God's laws.

You are speaking in generalities regarding Christians and they do not deserve that slander. If you want to blame, look at your own self, your actions, behavior and statements and them tell me who the real culprit is! You want to play the same game that you blame Christians for, isn't that true? Look within yourself and let He who is without sin, cast the first stone. I doubt you'd be able to throw any, and neither would any of the rest of us human beings.

Christianity, like other religions, is a mental virus. It's only true purpose is to spread itself. It doesn't matter if any of it makes any sense as long as it continues to spread.

When God created the world there was one rule, "Don't eat the fruit off of the tree of knowledge." We did it anyway.

God did give the power to choose if we wanted to accept Him or not and He did give us instructions. His deciles were taught by Him and then they went out and taught other people. everyone has a seance of right and wrong, but when you're a christian, the Holy Spirit leads you in the right direction and the Lord talks to you. that's one of the things i love about God, is that you don't have to do anything to come to Him, you can just come as you are.

God Bless!

It is not a single Satan which is created by God. Innumerable Satan's are there in this world in the guise of human beings. We can't blame God for the ills, it is the learning process of the mankind right from the childhood of the man. Depends, in which environment he lives, what he learns from his parents, from his child friends, from his teachers, from his religious mentors, from his young age friends, from local politics, from the policies of the Governments, etc.

All the right mixes or the wrong-mixes make a man a human being or a Satan.

The bible is only confusing to those that chose not to except it. Life is a choice. We live and die by our choices.
We chose whether to believe in the one true God or not.
And when we die we will be judged by that choice. God made the rules. It's useless to blame Christians for your own bad choices.
I am a Christian that has a full understanding of what God wants of me. The whole duty of man is to fear God and keep His commandments, (Ecc. 12).

You know, we know God is more intelligent than we are. But you are wondering why he doesn't explain himself to us. Think of it this way, we are more intelligent than a cockroach, do we try to explain ourselves to them? See, God knows so much that our brains can't even comprehend it all. And since God gave US free will, therefore we are held responsible for the actions we take. But for sure, God knows our hearts and knows how we truly are inside, only he can decide our fate. We just have to accept that there are some things that only God knows and we don't know. But you shouldn't worry about it, you can always trust that God knows what's best for you.
One more example to bring my point ac cross. If you are driving through downtown on a busy street, and there is an accident 3 or 4 blocks up,most like you wouldn't be able to see it from where you are. But the window washer that's working 20 floors up in the air would be able to see it. Why? Because from where he's standing he can see a lot further down the road than we can.

Wha Wha Wha. All these bad little troubles we have. Do you not realize that if God had never created you in the first place you would not be able to sit here now a complain about troubles. We exist only because God choose for us to exist. This is Gods creation and he can do with it as he sees fit.(by the way I think he is doing great) Is that not the same freedom you except out of your so called "free will". Do you not except the right do as you see fit in and about your own life or are you asking for God to act more like a dictator, forcing our every move in life. I appreciate God my father and I love being his son as he raises me up with love, kindness and some good healthy discipline.I'm with Shaw free will is very Miss-interpreted by us humans. Personally I'm glad God gave me a chance to exist and experience being a human being, Yeah troubles and all I am glad to have been given the gift of life.

HERE IS SOMETHING TO READ ABOUT . . . . . FREE WILL.

When I gave you the law, I never covered your eyes from the law; it is you who turned your eyes away from the law. The law made you my own but the callousness of your heart has deafened your ears, blinded your eyes and made you turn your backs away from me.

You always raise your arms or bow prostrate before me in praise, but what you do to your fellowmen is not in accordance to my will and you obnoxious vipers shamelessly call me your God. You violent creatures, you kill, you maim and steal and you direct your eyes toward heaven and say "Lord, I have fulfilled your will.

You show others how you love me, yet your life is full of shallow pretensions and call yourself righteous. Now, I ask you,, are you taking chances with me? Everytime disaster strikes, you say it is your destiny, and each time your heart is filled with sorrow, you say it is my will. But I tell you my child, it is not destiny that has dawned on you or my will to cause you pain but merely because you have distanced yourself away from my divine protection.

I never intended to sow sufferings on earth, for it is your guilt that makes you suffer. So, how did I become the reason for your misfortunes? Am I an unjust God?

Remember that I created you equally as free men, and gave you the ability to choose between right and wrong, but you kept on refusing to understand and instead, with those specks in your eyes, you held on to your pride and blamingLyoint your accusing fingers towards your brethren.

That is the reason why I gave you my only Son and along with him the interpretation of the law, for what good is the law without culpability. Instead, you have rendered yourselves blameless and have chosen to be blinded from the truth. If that is so, I SHOULD HAVE CREATED HORSES AND NOT MEN.
