Do you think, please, it's possible some people's minds could be such that they consider their sins or flaws so irrepressible that they consider them like their god, just because these flaws are stronger than they are.. A kind of devotion to the flaws, just because they feel unable to deal with their strength (the strength of flaws) ? (It would be like a kind of respect they develop for something just because this something is stronger than they are).

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Do some religiosities originate in a flaw ?

What you're saying is possible because folks, especially these days in our Post-modernistic world, can take just about any idea, however accurate our inaccurate, and turn it into a sort of shibboleth of identity.
On the other hand, at least some of these sorts of outcomes might be a symptom of addiction (or mental problems) rather than merely prolonged ideation.

Thank you, Philovoid.
i agree with you. Let me please be more accurate (ideas become clearer in my brain):
For instance, if they are unable to resist gluttony, is it ridiculous to think they invent a god to worship that would teach gluttony is a part of human nature, that has to be honoured. But, to feel respectable, they invent too some easier forbiddings this god would teach as well and that they observe. For instance, their god would command to wash their hands twice instead of once before eating.
You obviously are a wicked man, or a sinner if you don't observe this prescription
