You are responsible/accountable for what you do. Are you also responsible/accountable for what others do because of you? Why?

If you incite violence, condone it, encourage it, defend it, support it how are you not responsible for your part in it?

    I disagree with thee. If you raise a child in an atmosphere of racism/bigotry/hate and that child murders those you have a=taught him to hate you are just as responsible as if you were the one who committed the murder. In my opinion. Purveyors of hatred don't get off the hook that easily with me. Thank you for your reply Adam.

    Good morning mumzy!  According to the justice system and the military, yes. If you hire a hit man to kill someone but don't pull the trigger you're guilty for that murder, if you do something wrong in the military and your ordered by an officer to do it, the officer is responsible, the soldier always follows orders?

    Precisely. People are brainwashed all the time. Some parents raise their children to be hatemongers and racists so when the kids murder those they were instructed to hate it isn't just them  at  fault.  Thank you for your reply BSurf and Happy Monday! :)

    People are not robots.. In this scenario you put forward the person must first decide to agree with what they are being told..  ( That is they must personally agree with the racist position put to them from others, meaning they become just as much racist as the ones that influenced them )   And they must make the personal decision to act upon their now racist views to the extent of killing someone because of their race.  So as you already know.. I am a Christian. So i know that there shall be a final judgement and all unrepentant racists will be judged and condemned for their own deeds.. So if either of these people in your scenario do not repent and accept Jesus and their Redeemer then both of them will be judged for their thoughts and deeds and they will both suffer for eternity for what they have done..  So i do not have to physically put anyone on the hook,, God has that covered for me..

    Personal responsibility will be what counts when each and every individual person stands before the LORD.. There is no group guilt and the sins of the father or son will not be placed on each other..
