Boris,
Your angry tirades have so many misrepresentations that I honestly find myself wondering if you believe half of what you type. You misrepresent what the Bible teaches, misrepresent Christians who happen to believe what the Bible teaches, and then blame Christianity for the fact that people feel guilty when they do things outside of God's plan.
The Bible talks about what happens when people persist in seeking their own pleasure outside of God's plan in Romans 1:21-22
21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools
You keep claiming that Christians are fools ('no intelligent person...'), and yet failing to honor God is what truly makes one a fool. Persisting in pursuing the flesh while ignoring God leads to a debased mind, as it says in Romans 1:28
28 And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done.
Just like pain is a signal we are being harmed physically, guilt is a signal we are harming our spirit. You can try and blame Christians for causing the guilt, but we are only guilty of believing what the Bible says is true. It is your own conscience which convicts you of the wrong because that is how God designed you.
Blaming Christians for pointing to the problem is sort of like blaming the rooster for the sun coming up. The rooster didn't cause it – he just told you what was happening!
