No. No, no, no. My transition to naturalism had absolutely nothing to do with accepting responsibility to God. At the time that I was struggling with this, I already accepted that I was responsible to God for my actions. I am not a naturalist because I want to explain away my misdeeds; I am a naturalist because the evidence led me here. I came to the point in my faith where I finally and fully accepted that I could not reconcile evolution with scripture. One had to be wrong, and from examining the evidence, I found that it was Genesis. I actually went through the process of coming to a proper understanding of science instead of peddling old dried up creationist mudslinging like I used to. Whether or not there is a God does not negate my personal responsibility for my actions, I will either be judged by God, or man, so becoming a naturalist does not free me in any way from my responsibilities.
