The reasons you are not a Christian is the fear of responcibility for your sins.
Well, let's see who is better at shirking responsibility for their own behavior... the Christian whose every action is dictated by either the will and plan of god or influenced by the devil, or the non-believer who has no one else to blame for their own actions and must take full responsibility for them?

Religion is a cop-out that allows a person to blame or credit other influences for what are clearly their own shortcomings or abilities. If we truly "feared responsibility for our sins", wouldn't you expect us to be flocking to the churches in droves for that famous forgiveness the Christians preach (but less often practice)?
