How many Christians are here?

I am a Christian. However, I don't attend church, because I'm not very social. On the other hand I keep God close to my heart. I am a sinner, and my heart is full of regrets. I feel that every day I find a new way to spit on all I have been given and I just can't turn back some things. So I feel the need for salvation. I believe Jesus came to earth to show us the dangers of ``amor sui', and is our savior. I certainly accept him as my savior.

Is anyone else here a Christian? I imagine most of you are atheists, agnostics or of other religions. This is ok with me, as I understand it is what is fashionable amongst young people these days. However, I'm always happy when I meet a fellow Christian in an unexpected place :)

Why do you even care? From your point of view, no matter how hard you screw things up you are practically guaranteed to have an afterlife (possibly a quite dis-pleasurable one, but still an afterlife); with that in mind, you can lead a merry and practically carefree life, knowing that even if you don't do your very best in this world, it doesn't really matter since it's just a transition to the next world, for you and for everyone else. Earthly life is just the waiting room to the afterlife: you can read a few magazines, you can check your email, you can talk with the other people waiting there.

All that to say: is it just me or atheist oblivion is far far scarier than Christian hell.
