"It is a different thing, a mind-set of assuming you did cause the many things you did cause that placed you where you are."

Amos, if you misuse and misplace that definiton of responsibility in that way, then you must also say that the passengers on a crashing plane are responsible, by merit of choosing the series of events that led them to be on board, for their own untimely death.

This however is mere linguistic jiggery pokery and has no bearing on who or what was actually responsible for the crash.

Neither does the fact that the Pilot was responsible for the plane.

3 different definitions meaning 3 different things.

Just as in this rape argument.

A rape victim bears NO responsibility for being raped.
