Blame is an affect laden word.
Usually, when we think of somebody as being to blame for an event we are judging both their behavior and that person. In the examples, blame implies causation and guilt. In our heritage, establishment of guilt is followed by some form of punishment. The punishments vary from standing in a corner for five minutes to saying several extra prayers to a jail term or, in rare instances, the death penalty. We grow up in the culture learning this type of system of blame, guilt, punishment and absolution and apply it with regularity to others and to ourselves.
