Riddle For You

I'm a prophet to some
and to others a freak
I make some men proud
and make other men weak
I have the power 
to drive most men insane
always without sorrow
I am never to blame
I live within all
but the soulless go free
with every decision
you come looking for me
although you may hate me
I'm constantly there
my final decision 
will always be fair
if you live without me
then you're living a lie
so now I ask you 
who am I?
