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 :)

Don't refer to it as "God". I think we can be fairly sure that the "God" depicted in, say, Christianity is just lunacy.

In that post, I meant a "creator" in general, in the same way that if you were able to run Universal simulations, and if you programmed that simulation, you would be the "God", or creator of that simulation.

The point is, we will never know if the Universe was created by someone/something for a reason or whether is just exists by some mechanism that will likely forever elude us until the end of time.

Regardless, when discussing about the "reality" of concepts at this level (i.e., what exists outside/before/after the Universe) realize that everything you know or perceive is a "man-made" creation for you are just a information processing system that creates its own understanding of the world. For all we know, you could be "God" (the creator of this simulation) running through it yourself because you feel like it.
