My answers to the same questions are totally opposite than yours. And I will tell you this much, before I was a Christian I had the same exact answers as you. I was unsatisfied, unhappy, searching for something real, out of control, and thats why I turned to alcohol and drugs. They gave me a temporary satisfaction.
When you trust Jesus as your Lord and savior your life changes drasticly. A peace comes over you, because you know that God is in control of your life, you recieve this awesome joy in your heart even in the midst of difficulty cause you know that everything will work out for the better. It always does for those that love the Lord. You recieve a deep fullfilling satisfaction of just being alive and having a relationship with the creator of the earth, and the searching and constant striving for more stops, because you FOUND IT!!!! These are things that you can only experiance when you truly trust Christ.
Just to let you know that being a Christian does not mean that life is easy or everything is grand all the time. In fact its probably a little harder as we are not part of this world however we are in it. The difference is our hope in the Lord and our tust in him.

Ok, 1 "HE" is "NOT" my saviour because i dont believe in Him/Her/It/Them..
Your answers may have been the same as mine but dont assume to know the reasons behind my answers. my reasons are different from yours and different from the ones you give, for this simple reason... My brain will not let me believe in GOD and i use that term loosley, its not that i dont want to beleive or that i have been done some great misjustice, its the fact that my brain needs a little more convincing than everone else.
This is the only way i can describe it;
I believe in other world life and i believe whole heartedly that we have been visited but until i see it with my own eyes or examine the evidence with my own eyes i will only ever believe it 50%
The same for God or how the universe was created.
