I see self-serving people as being selfish people. The fact that we might do something for ourselves doesn't make us self-serving, but it's when that becomes the focus of our lives. The focus of a christian's life is serving God and, in following his teachings we also serve others. Loving God also means loving others.
And, here you are, spending all day intruding on this message board, insistently spewing post after post of half-assed homilies and justifying the many atrocities of your religion, in a group of people who are far too familiar with this brand of bullshit to ever be convinced by it. You know it's not welcome or desired, but you do it day after day. You've also doubtlessly convinced yourself that most of the rules the Bible says you are to follow don't actually apply to you, because you don't feel like following them any more than I do. Let me know when they get around to sainting you for all these good works, because I want to be on hand to honor such a hero.
