  • The Blame Game
    The Blame Game Rabbi Stuart Weinblatt Yom Kippur 2005 If Jeffrey Zaslow, a columnist for the Wall Street Journal is not a rabbi, he should be. He recently wrote a column entitled, “It’s All Your Fault: Why Americans can’t stop playing the Blame Game” which reads like a High Holiday Yom Kippur sermon. He wrote insightfully about the finger pointing currently taking place among federal and local officials over the multiple failures and breakdowns associated with Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. Eric Dezenhall, a crisis-management consultant in Washington, D.C. explained, "Every event must have a villain, a victim and a vindicator in order for our culture to understand it. History is calamity-driven, but Americans feel these things shouldn't happen here, and someone must be at fault." There are people who actually study the biology and psychology of blame. Ohio University psychology professor Mark Alicke is one of them. He explains, "The human impulse to blame grows out of the evolutionary need to avert harm. If a group of early humans thought their survival was threatened because a member wasn't carrying his load -- hunting, gathering, whatever -- they'd point fingers, throw rocks, even commit murder. Nowadays things are a bit more sophisticated. You can go on the internet to buy a "calibrated blame-shifting device" for $4.95 from a clever ad agency. It is actually a giant foam hand with the words "It's your fault!" printed on the pointing finger. “Our blame culture is rooted in both nature and nurture. We still succumb to primitive impulses: If we stub a toe on a chair, we'll kick it and curse at it, even though we know it's irrational to blame inanimate objects.
