When he created man in the beginning, he left him free to make his own decisions.
If you wish, you can keep the commandments and it is in your power to remain faithful.
He has set fire and water before you; you stretch out your hand to whichever you prefer.
Life and death are set before man: whichever a man prefers will be given him.
How magnificent is the wisdom of the Lord! He is powerful and all-seeing.
His eyes are on those who fear him. He knows all the works of man.
He has commanded no one to be godless and has given no one permission to sin.
Sirach 15:14-20
We are all responsible for all the things that we do.
Do not blame anyone for your misfortunes because only you and you alone make the decision for yourself.
If you think that the decision was made for you, do not forget that you still made a decision to let someone make a decision for you.
