Welcome to the Forums!

I would advise you to learn about as many religions as you can.

What makes Satan more real than Jesus or God?

 

[Guitar's Cry]

Exploring your reality is a part of living. You can keep your exploration a secret if you feel you must; it's your life.

Welcome to the forums! You'll learn a lot here, and have fun exploring.

if i did become a christian again, then it is a MAJOR sin to explore...i feel chained up...

 

[Willamena]

What is sin? (to you)

 

[mBass]

i guess to disobey the 10 commandments AND to do something jesus woudnt do...like wonder off to other religions, but i feel like i have a right to...

Only if you draw hard lines around the label of "Christian." You don't have to, you know. There's nothing that says "Christian mBass" has to be "Christian Everyone Else."

 

[Father Heathen]

Don't worry, if there is a god I don't think he would've given us the ability to question and reason if he didn't intend for us to use those abilities. A benevolent and all-knowing being would be understanding enough not to hold your thoughts and doubts against you.

 

[Willamena]

Why are the 10 commandments special? If we perhaps deduced what they had in common, we could say that that was what Jesus taught.

 

[mBass]

yeah good point...but my main point to this topic was what would you do

 

[blackout]

Maybe just take a deep breath, relax,
and go to the source (god) yourself,
instead of turning to second hand "authorities".
(ie religions)

If god won't speak/communicate with you directly,
what kind of god would that be? eh. Am I right?

Oh, and Welcome to the forums.

(ps... that is what I did)

I'm not a Christian, so I can't say what I'd do if I was one.

I'm more like you.

Uhh, no its not. Christianity is not just a single religion. It is a collection of religions which almost all have differing beliefs.

Seriously, Hon (love that term), you are at ANY age old enough to decide for yourself what is right for yourself about "God" and "you".

Chances are, you will never hear "him" if you don't relax.

Can you treat this all more as a "clue game" of sorts?

Like try and have some fun with "god", with yourself, and with the world. you know?

It's not all so urgent. Important yes. Urgent no.

 

[Willamena]

In fact, I would go so far as to declare that anything you decide at any moment is right, regardless that at one moment you decide one thing and another another.

If you believe this too, then yay.

 

[stacey bo bacey]

It's all right, mBass. I understand even the realization that you don't believe anymore can be overwhelming.

As far as your family goes, if you think it will be nothing but grief and misunderstanding from them, then don't make them privy to your exploration of other beliefs. Maybe they can know in the future when you're better equipped to defend yourself and why you've chosen a different path.

Just relax and try to go with the flow (maybe easier said than done?) and don't try to understand everything all at once, or even at all. Just start discovering what different beliefs are out there. Start reading about the ones that interest you, could be here or an outside source. Take it all in, but one at a time. There's no rush.

Oh yes, and welcome!! I hope this place will help you in your time of confusion!

Just sort of chill out and take it easy. Don't rush and make any decisions until you have explored all the possibilities....Check out some other religions, the forum has many diverse religions...Everyone will be glad to answer your questions. You can even talk to people who are Satanists....so just read some threads and seek for answers.
We are glad you decided to try RF.....
