Haha, I hope you had a good... whatever you celebrate, if anything!

The thing is, I don't know if my repentance of sin would be sincere if I it was based on me skirting the system. I'm just a normal guy, and normal guys mess up: I don't expect any special treatment from God just because I'm a Christian. So if I spend my whole life giving Him the finger and then elbow him with a wink and a nudge just before I kick the bucket, how does that make me a good follower? I'd rather live my life not knowing, that way every day I can serve Him AND the people around me. Because a Christian that doesn't live for others really isn't doing it correctly!

Also, thanks for being so civil! On Reddit any mention I make of my faith becomes a massive circle-jerk. I'm glad this community is a bit more accepting. :)
