Why Weren't Both Unfaithful?

It is a supposedly serious report: Global Warming causes infidelity. The places that have an alleged increase in the effects of Global Warming have an increase in adulterous affairs. When you look into the report, it isn't Global Warming that supposedly causes the increase in infidelity but the "stress" about Global Warming. Seventy-two percent of the five thousand respondents to a survey blamed stress over bad weather for their extra-martial affairs. Yet, the report was that Global Warming caused the infidelity. It was not considered that Global Warming could be non-existent but the propagandizing claiming it is real could yet cause the stress. Global "Warming" was blamed because those in hotter places, Miami, Florida, for instant, were more likely to report this phenomenon. Did none consider the infidelity increase in Miami might be because folks are wearing less clothes there and on its beaches than say in Juneau, Alaska? (And, yes, environment is "a" factor). Besides those problems and others with the report the underlying premise is what is most disturbing. That premise is that people's behavior is determined by the environment. This determinism is paralleled with those who seek to explain bad behavior as the inevitable expression of genetics. Others would say it's not the weather or genetics but socio-economic status that causes wrongful behavior. It is interesting to me that the societal pop philosophy that believes everybody should be free to choose to live and do however they wish also tells us that people are only doing what weather, genetics, economics dictate. This blame something other than the person's willful choice, this determinism, is an attempt to absolve folks from personal responsibility. This "I am not to blame" had its debut in the Garden soon after creation. Eve informed God, "It was the serpent's fault." Certain Christian movements adopted a spiritualized philosophy that takes the responsibility away from the individual. Lust is caused by a demon of lust. You act the way you do because of a generational curse. Yes, there are demons who encourage lust, and there are spiritual effects of one generation upon another. And yes, genetics can affect temperaments and propensities, and a hot summer's day can make it more conducive to lose one's cool. Yet, that is the thing about man created in the image of God. He can choose. He can choose to act contrary to what his genetics or environment might dictate. In the garden God planted two trees one of Life, the other of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God was letting humanity know, "You have a choice." If it were only about environment and genetics, Adam and Eve would have never sinned-they lived in a perfect environment with perfect genetics. If it were only about environment and genetics, many folks would never be converted. No. It is always more than that. It is "Whosoever WILL." Whatever your environment, genetics, or economic status, you can by grace be saved! God's given you a choice. (By the way, why would only one spouse in a marriage in Miami be unfaithful? If it is the climate, why weren't both unfaithful?)
