What kind of life would you be living, if you weren't Christian?

What kind of life would you be living, if you weren't Christian? Do you think it would be much different?

Having been prodigal for several decades after my time in the service I know exactly what I am like as a non Christian.

It's not something anyone should desire, but it has given me a different outlook on life and understanding and appreciation of Christ than most people.

This is how I know that good can be found in anything through Christ if you truly look for it or, as a secular might say, that every dark cloud has a silver lining.

I would have led the same lifestyle, because I was a genuine Pharisee until I was 16 before God rescued me from that empty, lonely life.
 

Can't think of a name

The same as I am currently living with the exception that I was into a blend of Hinduism or Yoga and Christianity and I would practice meditation. The only things that have changed are that I no longer follow or practice those teachings and I don't use swear words any more. Aside from being saved, that is.

I don't think it would be a huge change. I think I would probably be more self centered and selfish than I am now

I think i'd be much more resentful and somewhat isolated. I've struggled in the past with behaviors that hurt me a great deal. However, I have found peace through mindfulness and meditation, so I think that'd still be part of my life, but in a secular context - seeking that 'spirit within' which is lost without Christ

It'd be way, way worser without Jesus!
