God

“God made me like this. Sin is His fault.”

If this excuse won’t work in a civil court, it certainly won’t work on Judgment Day. Even with an expert defense lawyer, it would take a pretty inept judge to fall for the old “God made me do it” defense. We are responsible moral agents. The “buck” stopped at Adam. (When Adam ate the forbidden fruit, he sinned and he cannot just pass the responsibility of his sin to anybody else.)  He tried to blame both God and Eve for his sin; Eve blamed the serpent. It is human nature to try (blaming other people or external factors for their sins), but it doesn’t work with God.

“and Adam was not deceived, but the woman was deceived and became a transgressor.” -1 Tim. 2:14
