Q: If you are a Christian... Is there any benefit for you?

A: Sure. Lots. I was selfish, lonely, hedonistic, and a lot of other things I didn't know I was. I thought I understood love, and joy, and peace, and sorrow, etc. but have learned that my prior understanding was really only a sliver of what it could be. I'm a better persona and I live with better people (of course that last part wasn't hard to do partying and living lawlessly.

Q: For people in your life -- friends, family, coworkers, etc.?

A: Any answer would be speculative because only they can answer that question but I can say that the men don't have to worry about me having sex with their wives, girlfriends, and daughter, and none of them have to worry about me acting selfishly, or violently, or breaking into their houses and stealing their stuff, or acting avoidantly or inconvenienced when they're in need, and none of us are caught up in a delusion that we're moral people living perfectly moral lives. I know how to give and keep my word and those with whom I live and work and play with, for the most part, also know how to do the same.
