i guess i identify as agnostic because i really can't say i believe in a god but i really can't disprove the existence of one but this week i went to a mormon camp and idk it just felt so peaceful like they talked about god and jesus and it felt right?? but i've researched mormonism and they have so many beliefs i just can't agree with and that i think are just wrong and honestly i have no idea what i wanted to do with this post im just so confused about what to do and my doubts about my beliefs have really been bothering me and i just don't know anymore

dude, religion can be so exhausting. i feel for you. i think i'm sort of in the same limbo as you--i don't exactly know my beliefs in god and jesus and everything, but it just feels so lovely and right thinking about it without all the other contradicting "rules" of the religion and homophobia. the thing is, though, you don't actually
have to follow every rule of whatever religion is laid out before you, because, despite what some may preach, religion is very controversial and relative! some priests say
this, some priests say
that; one bible verse doesn't like one thing, another verse likes say the thing is a-okay. you can be a part of a religion without conforming to everything it "demands". no two people have the same exact beliefs.
if you're not comfortable with any religion's overall mindset, though, you can just believe in god and jesus on your own accord. maybe try to find a free thinker's church, where you can praise jesus right between a buddhist and a wiccan praising their own deities. i personally feel more comfortable with this sort of belief. it feels more natural and just better for me. i love the idea that jesus might still accept me even as a girl who likes girls, y'know? im not all the way into catholicism, but i completely love so many of their teachings and beliefs. when i actually have my life figured out, i'll tackle my religious status, but until then, i'm pretty content with my religion as it is right now.
