I'm a teenager who was raised Catholic but now I'm like agnostic or atheist or something.
I don't really believe there was a guy named jesus who died for everyone's sins. i really do not believe that. so how can i call myself a christian?
i do not agree with the christian ideals on premarital sex. i lust all the time- so i don't want a religion that prevents lusting.
i also masturbate. i'm not going to stop it for some higher power that isn't even real.
what should i do? i don't believe anything.
i don't want to be a Christian. I never really was one in the first place. (link)

if your mind is telling you one thing and your heart another, follow your heart
you might think that hey, i've been doing this religious thing all my life but i want to stop. but that's bad...
and then your heart might be telling you that you are not what you've been acting all your life
go with your heart
give it a try and if you like the fact that your agnostic or atheist, then keep it that way
but before you give a final decision, i suggest you do research on agonsticism and atheism because they might seem similar but they can be very different
personally, i'm an atheist and sometimes i might feel like i should be religious but i know that deep down, it's not right for me
i stick up in what i believe, i respect what others believe, and i never EVER push my beliefs onto others
so think through this and do your research, you'll be glad you did :D

I feel really awkward when people ask me about my religion and stuff because i'm agnostic and don't think there is a way to prove if god is real or not. I really don't want to tell my friends that because most of them are really religious and i'm scared they wouldn't like me if I did. Why do people think it's such a big deal if you don't believe in god? I don't know if I should tell them or not. (link)

i honestly don't feel that your friends are true to you if they tell you anything besides that they don't mind what you believe or what you practice or what your opinions are. you are entitled to be who you are and who you want to be and no one has the right to tell you otherwise. there's obviously going to be people that are gonna wanna bring you down because they truly feel that you are wrong. but those people are the ones that might have their own issues they want to take out on others.
so personally, if your friend are really friends, they shouldn't care
you might have different opinions, but so what? everyone is different. you shouldn't be treated differently based on who you are and what you believe.
