Ahhhhh . . . I wonder how you apportion out responsibility.

. . . in the life of . . . as a result of . . . life experiences and contingencies . . .

a horribly abused child now adult

a genetically managled brain capacity now an adult

a gang raped and shattered sensitive 23 year old woman

a tender hearted man who’s mother and father constantly berated him as worthless and incompetent through he was quite brilliant and gifted, just terminally insecure and shattered by the abuse . . . now an adult

. . .

. . .

Only God knows the shoes another has walked in . . . internally and externally. Only God can apportion degrees of responsibility accurately.

Harsh assignments of responsibility by onlookers tend to be overblown in their confidence of accuracy.

Onlookers always know only a fraction of the realities involved.

I’ll repeat what I said in the first place:

We are each responsible for who we are and what we do.

“Onlookers always know a fraction of the realities involved”

This is true and always has been. It is God alone who knows all.

And it’s good counsel for anyone who involves himself directly or indirectly in the lives of others—in real time or on the internet. (that veil of anonymity)
