We all have our own cross to bear. You might not have been the one to nail you to that cross but it's up to you when to climb down off it.

I'd rather go threw life with a master who created me and knows best for me, that to blindly stumble about not knowing who and what I really am.

Why do you think that's the only alternative?

If you want to know who I/we are before God picks us up out of the gutter, you found the right person because I know who I was.

A descendant of Adams fallen race, lost without hope in this world. My sin separated me from my Creator.

Also, someone doing the best they could.

It's the only model for man that is possible.

There is no religion in the world that presents the origin of man and his dilemma the way the Holy Bible presents it.

There's a religious quote I found really good. Satan calls us by our sin but God calls us by our name. It sure sounds to me like you are being called by your sin.

Edit: I figured I butchered that quote so here it is:

The devil knows your name but calls you by your sin, God knows your sin but calls you by your name

I was called out of my sin, by the One who knows my name and everything else about me.

I would never go back to the life I knew before Christ. He has filled the gap where the sin was dominate.

Who would want you to? You're not atheist material. I can already tell you'd stop and get day-old donuts for the feast at the devil's table. There's plenty of ways to be a believer. There's plenty of ways to be a Christain. Why would you choose the role of salve/master if you've been freed?
