I choose to take personal responsibility because it leads to a better quality of life.

Personal responsibility is not dependent on your belief system - an atheist is just as likely to have a positive attitude to personal responsibility as any believer....

WE do not go to a priest and get absolution--over and over again--so yes, I'd say we do believe in personal responsibility.

Well I'm not an atheist, but regardless of your religious despositions, every person has personal responsibility.

If you are talking about morals - personal morals, I don't mean to say it in a bad way, but religion has nothing to do with morality. Religion can compliment morality to a degree, but it is not the foundation.

Personal responsibility??? How can responsibility NOT be personal?
