Please tell me about your life, since as way back as you can remember and put emphasis on your beliefs and upbringing, along with formal education.
Also, are you representing some sort of institution, or do you do these forays into forums on your own just for fun?
Damn... those were two questions...
I am 39, I have 3 older sisters. My mom passed away 11 years ago. I was raised Catholic and I went to Catholic high school. I always believed in God but then I struggled with that belief in college for a short time to the point I was almost a deist and then I studied DNA a bit. I earned a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering (BSME). I worked for the US government for 15 years as a mechanical engineer, design team leader, and systems engineer. I served as a facilities engineer and a combat tank engineer.
Raised Catholic in the US?
That must have had it's difficulties, no?
What did you think of the evangelicals, when you were in that Catholic high school?
Were you aware of the creationists back then?
How did becoming convinced that the DNA was designed by god turn you from almost deism into Christianity?
What does Christianity have that deism doesn't? the bible?

You know that serving the Lord might not mean what other humans have told you it means, right?
If the Lord keeps himself hidden and out of our affairs, maybe that means that he doesn't want to interfere... which means that you serve him by also not interfering. And yet, you and most of your fellow religionists insist on interfering...
