confused about religion..

  Author: 62472  Category:(Religious) Created:(12/13/2003 11:08:00 AM)

I am 13... and I am not religious. I grew up Christian, but now I feel theres nothing to believe in. The way I see it is if there was a God (the one I was brought up to worship) then he's all lies. Not to mention its not realistic... I am very open minded but not about religion. I used to be a little "god child" I was happy to be religious. but now, I have no faith left for any religion. I suppose it all started when my parents got divorced when I was 7 or 8. It shattered my young spirit, and ever since I have thought long and hard about God and all of the things Ive prayed for, but its never ok in the end. I have no reason to believe.

if you have a thought for me, thank you so much

xoxo Kate

Date: 12/13/2003 11:53:00 AM  From Authorid: 54247    Life can be so difficult without faith. Mine has sustained me for 72 years - no parental divorces - but, I had four mothers. First one died when I was born, second was my grandmother who died of cancer when I was three, a wonderful aunt took over and at age 7, I got a wonderful stepmom who was a widow also and had no children. Do you ever watch the TV show Joan of Arcadia - CBS Friday nights? It really strikes a note with me -over the years when people connected with me and really helped, they never said they were "God" - but I do believe that God does send help and messages and many times we don't listen. Kate, you are in my prayers that you connect some day! My favorite opinion is that NO ONE CAN PUT YOU DOWN WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION! RAT

Date: 12/13/2003 12:10:00 PM  From Authorid: 10798    Katie, it might help if you tried a different church with a good youth program. Please don't walk away from God entirely. You absolutely won't find Him unless you search for Him and try to get close to Him.  
Date: 12/13/2003 3:13:00 PM  From Authorid: 43807    it is normal for you to be confused about religion at some point in your life, or at many points. I am still confused.  
Date: 12/13/2003 6:51:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    maybe christianity isn't for you.... there are MANY MANY MANY religions out there, you should think about others that may interst you and do some research and ask some USMers to tell you about thier religions(we have a wide varriety here) and make an informed decision, you are at that age where many people tend to question thier beliefs it's only natural  
Date: 12/13/2003 6:53:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    don't let anyone tell you which religion is for you or is better for you, that is something ONLY YOU can do it's your choice  
Date: 12/16/2003 1:16:00 PM  From Authorid: 16671    Because we dont get everything the way we want it in life doesn't mean there isn't any God. God sees the beginning from the end and He is still there to watch over you. Dont look at what man does or does not do about religion, look to God for all your answers, if we watched what man does we will surely be disipointed .  
Date: 12/16/2003 5:33:00 PM  From Authorid: 15070    If you reach out, with your heart & your mind, the answers will come to you! Good luck on your journey. And, yes, there are MANY, MANY Paths to your Creator!!!
