It seems to me that Barry is trying to communicate the idea that there are things we're responsible for and answerable to, and things we don't want to be responsible for, or answerable to. I agree.
Christians, for example, do not want to be responsible for or answerable to their sins, with which...they tell us...they struggle mightily.
Lol, yup, right. Uh huh. You're saying they don't, I presume? In which case I would agree. I don't think Christians struggle with sin at all, I think they struggle with knowing they are gullible douchebags whose parents did them wrong by "blessing" them with their religion. If Christians didn't want to sin, and they took that seriously, they simply wouldn't sin. They wouldn't have to "struggle" with it.
