    Looking for a new faith!

    I'm a former fundamentalist Christian who deconverted because of issues that relate specifically to Christianity: an eternal Hell, lack of evidence for the resurrection, the trinity not making sense, rigidness and conspiracies, and so on. I believe in one God, who is completely perfect in every...

    Does anyone else experience anxiety over climate change?

    I've gone anxiety over climate change for a few years now, on and off. Welp, it's come back, and I'd like to see if anyone else has the anxiety. Climate change is a very serious problem. I wholeheartedly think it exists, and it seems like practically all scientific evidence points towards its...

    I keep trying to believe in god, but I just can't anymore.

    I deconverted from Catholicism because I stopped believing in the supernatural, realized that the Bible was fallible, and discovered that I was an LGBT person. However, since my deconversion, I've had lots of internal conflict over religion. It has significantly decreased lately, but it's still...

    Would the Baha'i faith be good for me?

    I had a bad experience with Christianity but still believe in it to an extent. I by no means take the Bible literally and consider it as rules for a different time. The same applies to Islam. I'm not entirely sure whether or not I believe in a god or an afterlife, but if there is an afterlife, I...

    I feel trapped between Christianity, Islam, and Atheism.

    I've posted a bit about this kind of thing before, so I'll make my introduction quick. I'm an Atheist who has been deconverted from Catholicism for two years. As a bisexual, I was really turned off (no pun intended) by the way I was treated at my church. Additionally, I started to have massive...

    Massive, crippling fear of terrorism?

    I am a former Catholic who suffers from a massive fear of terrorism. This fear makes me a less functional, more afraid person, and helps in harming my social life. There are two things I fear in particular: 1) What if they catch me? What if they kill me, or the people I love? What if they...

    Does anybody feel the way I do? Religious-based trauma?

    I am reaching out to all of you today to see if anybody can relate to my problem. I'm sure that others on this form, particularly ex-Christians or ex-Muslims, will be able to relate. During my time in faith, I felt a loving, awesome presence. However, as time went on, I began to experience more...

    I have an irrationally large fear of terrorism... what do I do?

    I have frequent irrational fears that I will be attacked by terrorists (right-wing, Muslim, homophobic, etc.). These fears truly scare and bother me, and I'm unsure how to manage them. I'm aware that the odds of being attacked by terrorists are very, very small (even smaller than being struck...

    Non-religious people: What convinced you to stop believing in God?

    Title. Please answer the question and have a good day! :D

    If you were God, how would you have created the universe? What would you have done differently?

    Title. Personally, I would do multiple things differently: 1) I would make sure that all people were programmed with a strong concept of morality, so that people could clearly know if a choice they made was objectively moral or objectively immoral. 2) I would make it so that all (human) beings...

    Why do you believe what you do?

    Title. I'll explain my reasons for believing what I do later on in the post, as I cannot at the moment I'm writing this.

    Is it possible that extremists such as ISIS or Al-Queda are correct?

    I've been thinking about this issue a ton recently, and it's starting to freak me out somewhat. I don't have much else to say on it, but what do you all think?

    I am in desperate need of help...

    Please, someone help me. I have recently been in an intense internal conflict over whether or not I should be theistic or atheistic. I am a pansexual male who has OCD and most likely deperession. I used to be extremely religious, but a combination of my sexuality and oppression at church(es)...
