Satan already has all the Moslems, Hindus, Bhuddists, etc. right where he wants them: on the wrong path. He doesn't care in which direction someone goes off track as long as they are not going in the right direction.

You really don't beleive in the Moslem, Hindu, Bhuddists, etc. Gods?
No, not if we are born naturally sinful as you claim.

How is easy it is to blame God for everything and credit Him for nothing.
Well you see, that's the problem you're going to get if you go around claiming to be the creator and controller of EVERYTHING....you also have to take responsibility for EVERYTHING. You can't go waving your arms around and screaming that it's not your fault every time something goes wrong. Christianity is very good at doing such a thing mind you, it has perfected it into an art form....but it's just a sham all the same.

We are to blame for bad things we do on an earthly level, but not on one according to a religion. We are not to blame for our basic nature, which you say God made us with and then proceeded to set the bar impossibly high, with a supremely draconian punishment for failing.
I don't believe in a god, so I neither credit nor blame one for anything.

When we say born naturally, we mean from the fall of Man, not as God's will. When everyone after the fall was born, they had the sinful nature within them as part of the fall from the Garden. This is not God's fault. If I show you how to drive a car and you drive it in a way inconsistant with what I taught you, can you blame it on me? No.

This goes back to the other response above. Some people say that God created evil. This is not true. Evil is the byproduct of Mankind's misuse of the rules. Evil is not a tangible acitivity. Evil is simply the absense of following God's rules. We are all guilty of this, even Me. This is why Jesus' birth and death in human form was necessary. Evil is a byproduct like a shadow is the byproduct of light.
