I would never serve or worship any diety, even if he showed me how magnificent his power is. I am slave to no man, no religion, no government, no god. I exist to serve only myself and I shall maintain my freedom.

Oh and don't say not sinning is a good thing, almost everything a human being does can be considered a sin.
What utter tosh. You're a slave to the yankie dollar just like the rest of us bud. "You're just a fucking peasant as far as I can see". If you'd raised children then you should know... that it's knowing your boundaries that gives you freedom.
Humans do good and bad stuff. One of Xtianity's precepts is that people do do bad stuff sometimes. It seems you agree with that. Not doing bad stuff, and therefore making your own lot better, is the aim of Xtianity.
