Let me guess ... you lived a life of "sin" right?
Is a blasphemer a sinner?
If the same blasphemer only blasphemes against Allah is he a sinner? Sin is a ridiculous notion.
That being said, some people desperately need something to force them to clean up their shitty lives and Christianity can do that. Kudos to you if you straitened out your life because a fairy tale made you feel better about living, but for most of us - it's just idiocy.
More often than not "sin" is just doing the things that you are driven to do because you are a human, not because of some magical event that supposedly happened when the world was created.
