God proves that the ability to be responsible for something in no way serves as a compulsion to actually be responsible for something. God should be maximally responsible, and yet is not responsible in the slightest. He does whatever he wants regardless of how anybody else feels about it. That's what irresponsibility is.
Quote:God has dealt with us in a way compatible with our inability to live free of sin. That's what atonement is.
Demanding atonement for an inability we can't do anything about is mere cruelty, especially when he explicitly made it so that we lacked that ability. It's like beating an infant to death because it can't climb a ladder.
And, you still haven't addressed the dilemma I remarked on earlier.
