Not sure where this thread may go, but it seems some Christians, Catholics, or anyone of faith is NEVER willing to concede that God is either completely absent, or His desires cannot ever be known, but in all cases will never put blame to God.

Well, I do. I blame God, and He is now on trial.
Actually, justification not only includes God approving us according to His standard of righteousness. It also include us approving God according to His righteous nature. .
In Romans Justification is a mutual approving - God approves us the justified sinners and the we the saved approve God.
It is a mutual approving. It is a process in which God says to us "You have been justified as if you had never sinned at all." And we the forgiven in turn say (if we really know the word of God) " And we approve You God. We see now that there is no unrighteousness in You and in Your way."

Does God sin or temp anyone to sin? If He does not than blaming Him for sin seems to be
a way to avoid our own short comings.

Again, letting God off KJ.
Nobody wants to hold God accountable for anything.

I think you touched on the key word there, 'faith.'
It is faith that has a Christian put their trust in God, even in areas that are confusing and beyond their comprehension. Man is finite, God infinite. Can the finite really blame the infinite for things it doesn't understand or is unable to compute? Or does the finite put its trust in the infinite and believe things happen for a good reason?
