Yes Elderman,If someone committed a crime, how would you feel if you were blamed for it? You would consider this very unjust. Justice requires that the guilty be punished and the innocent be freed from blame.
If young man leaves home, ignores his father’s good counsel and then gets into trouble, it is not the father who is to blame. Then why our heavenly Father, God, be blamed when mankind commits wrongs? Should not the blame be put where it belongs—on the guilty party?
Who, then, is to blame for the terrible things that have happened ? Much of the blame must rest on people themselves. Human dishonesty and frustration cause crimes. Human pride and selfishness cause wrecked marriages, hatreds and racial prejudices. Human error and unconcern cause pollution and filth. Human arrogance and stupidity cause wars; and when entire nations blindly follow political leaders into those wars, then they must share the blame for the suffering. Hunger and poverty are primarily due to human neglect and greed. Consider: the world now spends well over 200 billion each year on armaments. If all of this were properly spent on growing and equally distributing food and eliminating poor housing, think what could be done, but people can’t read black and white.
