Is This The Truth Blame It On God & Satan?
51
The world wants to blame it on God or Satan
making up excuses why their life is this way.
Always looking for someone else to take
the responsibility for their behaviors or actions.
Never looking at the actions they take,
never understanding it's all up to you.
Every moment, every minute a choice is being made.
Its much easier to use a crutch than face the truth.
Getting high, drinking a beer or two.
Popping pills while they argue with you.
They have it together for sure never thinking things through.
God gave you the free will to choose which way you'd walk
in a positive format, or choose the negative way.
He left it all up to you.
Satan, just an example of someone that never wanted
to take responsibility for the destruction he could cause
for himself or others. A bad example, he paved the way.
God gave him the free will to choose, he went the wrong
way, so you follow his example anyway, even if you sit
on Sunday in the church pews.
Some get it by learning to live the word through actions
some thinking memorizing the word in your head
will make a better choice some day.
What if you still don't walk the right way?
What if you still have premarital sex behind the scenes,
or smoking dope on the side.
Pornography always on your mind.
Gambling every penny you have away.
At the end of the day, was it Satan, or was it just you were
making another bad choice for you today.
Its easy to point the finger and look the other way.
Never facing yourself in the mirror as you complain away.
Yelling and screaming because your life is just not going the right way.
Emotional abuse, physical abuse, neglecting others because
you've decided that its the truth Satan made you this way.
Buying that lie its Satan is just another excuse, someone else never
refusing the message that you claim.
Someone hurting themselves taking on the blame for something
they never did to you.
Hurting others, because you can't change your ways.
Of course, leaving the world it's Satan that doesn't tell you the truth.
Lying to get your way, taking everything away
manipulating others to get what you want.
A thief in the night, because you choose to be the thief in the night.
Deceptions you believe instead of the prayers that you always pray.
Its one thing to read the bible and know the truth,
only unbelievable if you can't walk through actions the right way.

From the atheist point of view this is very true. From a christian perspective it is usually stated it is Satan that is fault, and God will saved the day.
From the budah stand point, it is yourself that is to blame for your life by choices.
We can go on and on about all the different perspectives. Think I have to say that it does come down to what culture you come from, what they teach you and program in your mind to believe that people fall back on.
Even if you are brought up atheist, you are still being taught to believe there is not God. So which version out of all do we end up finally agreeing upon!
What?!?!? Ib did you really say men do what they do because they are programmed to. Well Hattie I guess your hub didn't serve it's purpose after all . I could have sworn that you said people do what they do because they want to! Yep that's about right.....Satan is always blamed when they get caught after doing something that they shouldn't have. Or is just ashamed and need to pass the buck. At the end of the day ,most of these people are pulling the wool over their own eyes because sooner than later they begin to believe their own lies and end up hurting themselves
Btw the predator does have free will, and it is to kill if he didn't have free will he would just be a predator not able to exercise his demons. Yo Ib what are you on?!?!? Having no free will binds you. Having free will allows you to let your hair down and I believe in the real world you are able to let it down to some degree.
Well if you study every culture, and country, they sometimes believe what they are taught, some call it belief systems, some call it programming. lol Depends on what side of the fence you are on. For me I understand that humans in general make the simple choice of being crappy to each other, starting wars, violent, abusive etc, by their own free will and choice. I feel people want to blame it on God sometimes. I've heard people say that is God's fault, and what kind of God would allow these things. On the other hand I've heard atheists give their speech saying we are all programmed fools. I've heard more than I want to hear about Satan Made me do it, and we're all possessed. lol Now of course depends on the person we are talking to that will define their own belief about what is causing things in the world. I just think we need to take responsibility for our own actions, and behaviors. We are partially responsible in some things how we treat each other.
That's a very thoughtful piece of writing Hattie , very easy to understand and has a great point .
Enjoyed reading.
It's amazing for any human to look in the mirror each day and still comes up with there is no God. But the job must continue as we live in a world of different beliefs and you explained that correctly also.
Keep up the purpose.
Bless.
Thank you Sky9106, think that is the thing in the real world we have so many different cultures, religions, and belief systems, its hard to say who is right, and who is wrong. We all could possibly hold a piece of the bigger picture of who God is, but most of the time we stay in our limited views, and probably never will know the correct answers.
Amazing reading! You have brought up some interesting points. I have a child that blames Satan for messing up their life, and a child that blames God for not saving someone they loved. Both had the choice to decided which one they wanted to blame. At the end of the day though, they try to step back and see the whole picture. Very impressive! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Thanks Hattie, and what you say to me it's correct, and tipoague , hi, have shed some more light on this, and I love the simplicity .
Don' t just get angry, is what my mom told me , count to ten, before any reaction. she said haste makes waste.
Something amazing has happened in our world and I am not going to cast blame on any one specific people , it's all of us , and it's always hard work ,we know when hard work and no money involved , what happens.
all the great people and Books warns against there already , simply because we actually all saw it coming , it's the consequences for inaction.
Just like there are so many things in life we see and try to protect against.
But to those that's looking at the past and seeing the future , by analyzing every present by the things we are now doing as norm.
It's quite easy to do, one can easily look at his own life and do this.
This is a great topic Hattie.
Great work
Bless.
Thanks sky, yes it is, but also one usually people get all bent out of shape about. lol :)

my comment had nothing to do with Atheist beliefs, it is just logic.
First of all belief in God is split between God and Jesus. That would make Jews non believers because they don't follow Jesus as God, they don't believe in the Trinity.
Following the bible, which I don't.
God created the problem of the Devil and by not training or teaching Adam and Eve caused the problem of the original sin. Who would put the devil or anything harmful in Paradise, the Garden of Eden?
God gave a warning to Adam and Eve which they probably would have heeded if there were no outside temptation. Adam and Eve then were created imperfectly by the biblical God. Adam and Eve had no life experience, and they had no teaching from their creator.
God couldn't win the following of his Angels, which were far superior to humans. Yet, he couldn't control them and protect the humans from them. This means that God created these problems, and yet he expects mere humans to solve them.
God failed when he created Adam and Eve, and he continued this failure when Cain killed Abel. So now billions of people have been born with the original sin weighing them down. This is unfair, unjust and just doesn't make any sense.
If a human acted in the way of the biblical God, what would they do?
This free will didn't work for the angels, why would it work for humans? BTW, Eve was not created in the likeness of God as there are no female deities.
The bible(s) were not written contemporaneously at the time of the events depicted in them, but a long long time after the events. It is also not one document, but many documents selected and edited from many man made documents. King James was the biggest collator and editor.
The information in the bible(s) doesn't contain any information that wasn't known to man at the time of its writing. That is why the Catholic Church didn't know that the Earth revolved around the Sun.
Also who gave authority to any human to interpret the word of God. What kind of biblical God cannot even write the Ten Commandments so they would survive intact.
Humans have not changed for the better since recorded time.
my opinion....
All very good points you are making Ib radmaster, I think a lot of people see it this way, and ask some of the same questions. Think that is why religion like politics becomes such a huge debatable topic. Think this is one of the reasons Religions do get into wars, and at the same time non-believers, or atheists argue their points as well.
Hattie this is brilliant.. You are so right.. God has given us free will. We cant blame our actions on any one but our selves. Great Hub
Voted up sorry I did not see this three weeks ago.

There is no God and there is no Satan.
When a predator kills its prey, they do it because that is what they do. There is no free will, they just do it.
The same is true for man, they do what they do because they are programmed to do it. There is no free will to do what you can do. It is law and religion that contain humans not to do what they can do.
Man is the same beast they were since recorded time only now with better technology.
Fictionally, God and Satan could be the same entity. Have you ever seen the two of them together?
