Not picking a fight here, just curious about your self-description. Saying you're a non-Christian is broad and ambiguous, to say the least. Why not identify what you are instead of that which you are not?

I'm an agnostic, I suppose. My parents were also not religious. I was under the impression that Christians believed Christ would reveal himself to his followers, which was why I asked.

Much thanks for clarifying. It's helpful to know where people are coming from. Godspeed to you.

He does reveal himself to believers and also to non-believers before they become believers, but not in a physical, visible way. It's hard to explain, but He reveals Himself through scripture to those who are honestly seeking Him.
