God, when He created matter and force and law, knew the nature of matter and force, and the power and purpose of law. He knew that they must work as He had made and meant them to work. He knew that we must be as His agents must make us.
Will He punish or reward us, then, for the acts of His agents: the agents He made and controlled? Absurd.
But, it may be urged, "man has a soul." So! He got that soul from God. God made the soul and fixed its powers for good and evil.
It is the soul, then, that is responsible, is it? But the soul did not create itself, and can only act as God has ordained that it shall and must act.
If man is not to blame for his own acts he is not to blame for the acts of his soul; and for the same reason.
"Soul," or "man," "reason," or "conscience," responsibility lies with the causer, and not with the thing caused.
And God is "The First Great Cause," and how then can God justly punish any of His creatures for being as He created them?
It is impossible. It is unthinkable. But upon this unthinkable and impossible absurdity the whole code of divine laws is built.
Therefore the Christian religion is untrue, and man is not responsible to God for his nature nor for his acts.
