Even if we accept responsibility for wrongdoing, we believe "we can fix this." The most common way we try to do that is to apply the technology of morality. We believe that with hard work and/or fastidious religious observance, we can repair our relationship with God and even put him in a position where he "can't say 'no' to us."7
