Do you belive in God? why?

[lizbud]

This is strange but I was raised Catholic & went to Catholic schools right
through college, but find myself agreeing with everything said here by both Pam and Christiansmommy.

Maybe most Christians are more alike than they are different.

I belive Jesus died on the cross for my sins then after three days he rose form the dead and went to heaven to be with God.That Jesus saved me is what i belive he saved me form hell so i could go to Heaven with him.

I am learning a lot here and love hearing different opinions! I know we talked a lot about homosexuality already, just wanted to add one thing...I believe that homosexuality is/was considered a sin because a homosexual relationship cannot produce children. I could be wrong, but that's how I believed it to be.

critter crazy: I understand why you are confused, it's a difficult topic. There are SO MANY different beliefs, and it's easy to get all mixed up in it. I guess what's important is whatever you feel in your heart, and if you don't know what that is yet, keep searching, you will find it.

lizbud: I know what you mean, sometimes it seems like Catholic beliefs are pretty different than other types of Christians, but I think it all boils down to the same ideas. I myself am not Catholic, but i have lots of Catholic friends and in discussions we have some disagreements about certain things but mostly agree, especially on the 'important' stuff (hope that made sense)

I was raised Catholic, and although I don't go to church often, still consider myself Catholic. Yes, I belive in God.

I do have some problems with organized religion. I have a problem with religions saying their way is the only way. I think the truth has to be somewhere in the middle, and that one spefic religion can't be the only way to Heaven.

This is a hard topic for me because I have mixed feelings about it. Sometimes I believe and sometimes I don't. Like when we were at church and some of the people started talking in tongues and stuff... I found it funny and actually felt slightly embarrassed for them . My mom would tell me stories of all the stuff God does and did, and some of them I don't believe. Of course I can't tell anyone in my family that because they would be mad/sad towards me.

I sometimes believe in God because of what has happened to my mom. Long story short: Marriage Problems; divorce; then randomly found a wonderful new husband. Some of the stories of recoveries I believe. It's just hard to explain in 'type-able' words.

I am still very confoozled on this subject.
