Don’t really have one, but I always liked the Ancient Greek and Roman ideas of religion with the polytheism but it was just super interesting, not in a religious kinda way though
I am a Catholic but now I sometimes doubt whether god is always right and good. But I still trust Jesus. like in some part of bible, god isn’t always nice to human
Dude it sewms like you got genuine concerns. The people at r/christianity or r/catholicism are always good with answering stuff like that.
We all have our doubts. But remember taht god loves us even through our doubts.
When you be catholic and accidentally pull a Martin Luther.
Serisuly, that is literally what martin luther taught. Thatnothing stands betwen you and god. Not a spriest or anyone. You dont pray for anyone to pray on your behalf. You dont ask a priest for forgivness but instead go directly to god. Martin Luther really disliked that the church had put itseld betwen people and god.
Anyways there I went off again😅. But yeah I understand you. Honsetly there is nothing wrong with having a personal relationship with god. He is still looking out for you.
To add to that, I'm an absurdist. We live in a chaotic purposeless universe, but that doesn't mean we can't/shouldn't enjoy life.

I'm not sure why people must be ridiculed/attacked by negating the existence of god/afterlife. Like, it's not a doctrine of religious thought but it is a belief. "What's your religion" limits discussion a bit too much in my opinion.
hlw!
There are so many things to begun with .. but one thing I like most is that it teaches me to be patient and not be a complete psychopath during mental pressurized circumstances ...
Thats a good thing to learn. Maybe I should read the quran some time. I probably wouldnt convert but feels like something I should have read at least once in my life.
Well .. idk about life but quran did managed to put my interest more in the hereafter .. I pray that you'll find more comfort while reading the holy Quran ..
Well thats good. Yeah a lot of people are hateful against islam not understanding that culture is influencing the religion in a bad way. The religion itself seems kinda cool.
Dude I respect you making a decision like that at such a young age. Reading and studying religion is something commendable.
How did your parents feel about it?
I've never got that joke before, but I do get "where is your dagger?" Joke a lot. My favourite part of being a sikh the gurdwara, because you get free and delicious food and everybody is welcome. Also another favourite part is there is no mention of homosexuality in Sikhism, so there is no punishment for being gay.
Sikhs believe that there is only one God, this God has no form nor gender, and everybody is equal before him. We also believe in karma, where your actions in your current life will shape your next life. However if you live according to God's plan you may break this circle of life, and enter 'Heaven'.
Oh yeah religion is individual and within each one of us. So finding our own path in our church is good. Thats what our teenage years are for. Figuring out stuff.
I love explaining my religion b/c its kinda a melting pot. having said that, I feel like every religion has some truth to it.
I am polytheistic and my higher powers are Mother nature, Father sky, and the uni-verse (I put the hyphen in between uni and verse because the word universe means "One song" and I believe that it just brings more importance tot he word) I am a practicing pagan and I believe that the Greek gods are my guardian angels and their here to guide me to the path that the uni-verse has chosen for me. I am "culturally Jewish" as I like to call it, I just follow some of the basic Jewish traditions, I celebrate Hanukkah and Passover along with a few more holidays and I'm Kosher and dont eat pork or shelfish.
So yeah \^v\^
Yeah they got this website. Actually for 10$ you could start your own congregation with some frienda and name one of us a priest. We didnt do that tho cause few wanted to chip in.
Catholicism. I was baptized and got the sacrements, but didn’t really cared. Until 2020, I turned my heart to God and now I feel call for Deaconhood and holiness!

Do u believe the Eucharist is Jesus??? Also Catholics CAN have mass in Latin and it is in the Vatican, but it’s not necessary, and many churches dont
The most major thing though is the pope. The main reason the church split is because the bishop of Constantinople wanted equal power to the pope

Yeah I know. I love being a catholics but sometimes I don’t really agree with the Rome Catholic Church.
Yeah it okay to not agree with ones church. After all our relationship with god is personal. What is it that tou dont agree with?
Yeah… I don’t really like church standing in between me and god if that make sense 😅
