Finger Pointing

Should President Bush accept the responsibility for the September 11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center even though we pay the CIA and The FBI
goood money to uncover plots such as this?

Should the Pope accept the responsibility for the children that were abused by his Priest even though the Priest clearly know that this is not acceptable behavior in the eyes of God or man?

Should God be held responsible for all of the evil things happening in a world he created that seems to be full of hatred, disgusting actions and SIN?

It is so easy to point the finger and blame someone else but we should place the blame where it belongs.
All of these actions are being committed by human beings that seem to have lost the vision of the true nature of our existence.  We are not here to bring pain and harm upon each other but we are called by God to love one another.  In truth we are all sinners and each one of us will individually be called before God for an accounting of our actions.
And at that time he will be addressing each one of us personally and we will not be allowed to point the finger and place the blame elsewhere.

James,
this is well written but...(and you knew that was coming, didn't you?) is this the right forum. I liked it, it was sharp and asked all the right questions but it seemed to presented as a subject discussion. Perhaps this is the right place for it. I am not familiar enough with all the forums here, to venture far from my safe territory of open, dark and prose.

Thank you Kethry for responding to this...I felt like there was too much finger pointing and blaming going around right now...James
