Why people do crimes and ask god to forgive them?

Actually people never admit their mistakes...so no question of asking forgiveness from God. ;) They go to temple to ask for something

What is this "something"? :unsure:

To get a job, to win for an exam, to get more money, to cure from disease....

i don't believe that persons go to temple to ask God to forgive their sins. It is very rare. Isn't it?

Nice answer but those who go for other things too ask to forgive them if they have done anything wrong at last in front of God at least i do that. :laugh:

People confess and seek forgiveness from God, who is helpless before them. They dare not confess before police or court. This is nothing but buffoonery.

Sanjeev, sometimes people get a situation in such way that they need to do crime though they know that it is sin. so later they goto god for forgive. Atleast the punishment for that sin will reduce. that is the main thing.

For example, a boy needs 5 lakhs in a days for his sisters operation as she need to get operated in 24 hours and there is no other go for him. So what he can do. he rob some one or kill some one and get the money.then give life to his sister.

He know it is sin. So he goto god and request him to forgive.

Some people goto god for forgiveness as they know that the crimes and sins they did in this birth will effect their next birth. this may be another cause.

When you commit crime against some individual or society, the best way is to confess before the concerned person and express serious regret and compensate that person. Also, one should go to police and confess before court and get punishment for misdeed. But the offenders know that 'God' is only a hypothetical entity and can do no harm nor tell anyone. So, they stealthily confess before God and seek forgiveness. This way, they get false satisfaction of seeking pardon.

I was also thinking to say the same thing.......
If we find that mistake is in our side, we should ask Sorry from that person, not from God.I believe so. Isn't it? :)

GOD is great. He forgives us for our sins if we go into his shelter by true heart. But this is not for criminals.

But only criminals and cheats go to God or temples. If you sin against other humans, only they can forgive. That is why in Islamic Law, the murderer can be forgiven only by blood relation of the victim and nobody else.

Gulshanji you statement is wrong. that is only criminals and cheats going to god or temples. Its a blunder.

Every one have freedom to visit temples. People who love god also visit god. So do you mean people who ever visiting temples are criminals and cheat. this is really bad

People who have a faith in God goe to his home not the criminals not the general people.

yes, isha is right. people who love god will goto temple but not criminals.

Criminals love god more. Just see their number in every temple.

Gulshanji can you tell me how can we find whether a person is criminal or a good person who visit temple?

We need not count. It is a mater of experience that the staunch believers in God and regular worshipers are more involved in criminal acts than the non believers. The robbers worship "Goddess Bhawani' before every operation. These days, the politicians are accused of corruption and irregularities. These politicians start their election campaign by visiting temple first.

I recall an incident. A colleague of mine told that he had earned a few lakh rupees as 'other income' by 'grace of God'. This is what criminals and corrupt always say. God is partner in their illicit deals.

Then after long time now a days am visiting temples that means am I criminal?

Temple doors are open to all.....all people can go there.....no division in front of Bhagvan. So criminals also go there

Look crimes and sins are different concepts! What is a crime is not neccessarily a sin! For example when a person with no means to feed,does so to a hungry old steals food which is a crime in the eyes of law but may not be a sin! A kind of a moral problem!

well said chinmoy. whatever you said is absolutely right.

I too agree with Chinmoy,
Crime does'nt need to be a sin. I strongly oppose the statement, all go to temple for asking god to forgive them of doing sin or crime.
Asking god to forgive is not offense however, as atleast we feel guilty of doing that crime. In some cases after committing crime the criminal even after realizing(very rare) cannt ask the victim for forgiving(in case of murder) them in such cases they will approach god.
