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 :)

I'm Christian, but like you have difficulty dealing with people and don't attend church. Remember that repentance is the opposite of regret: if God has forgiven you for something, once you've decided it was a sin, then there's no reason not to forgive yourself.

Jesus' main lesson was about love, and loving yourself is not a bad thing. "Amor sui" in the sense of screwing others over is bad, but you're going to have a tough time loving life and others if you don't allow yourself to love yourself. That sentence sounded better in my head but I don't know how else to phrase it. Anyway, my point is that you basically can't go wrong with genuine love. Even if you screw up, at least you were trying. Much of the other trappings of religion can get you away from that, which I think is dangerous.
