I feel, like empty or something.
Hi Malus01,
If you belive that you just choose a religion and it becomes "right", then it ultimatly means nothing. Not every religion is true, by definition truth excludes otherwise nothing is really true because nothing is false. You have to decide what it is you want in life and if you really want to search and find the truth or instead just want a substitute where you dont have to change much and it can act as a 'filler' for the emptiness you feel, you only get one go at life, just one. At some point you have to sit down and ask yourself what your priorites are.

But see dudes there are things that I don't want to give up for a specific religion's sakes. like do I have to give up looking at porn if I go to christianity or islamic.

See I think that's why I have trouble finding the right one. I don't know if, when I go to that religion,and change for it, that it will be the right way in the end. I am afraid of changing, I think, because I am afraid I will go the wrong way. I know Christianity is not for me because of the above reason, and also because Christianity is confusing. I don't think any of the mainstream religions is a right way for me and when I join I would only be learning and I may say the wrong thing here and the JS would be skitzing up.
I am serious about this whole thread, though. I feel so bare coming to RF with limited knowledge on the topics, lol
If you conduct your search with the criteria that if you have to give up porn then that religion isnt for you, id suggest your priorites are very mixed up.
Suppose its true that Jesus was who he claimed to be and loved you so much that he paid for your sins on the cross so you dont have to in hell. Would it be wise to refuse to even consider his offer because you didnt want to change?
Some versus to consider.
Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near. Let the wicked forsake his way and the evil man his thoughts. Let him turn to the LORD, and he will have mercy on him, and to our God, for he will freely pardon. Isaiah 55:6-7
Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man whose sin the LORD does not count against him and in whose spirit is no deceit. Psalm 32:1-2
Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Isaiah 53:4-6
This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished- he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus. Romans 3:22-26
