Is it normal to have intense self contempt?

Like i read the bible and there is some stuff in there that makes me feel like I am going to hell... I want other religions to be correct but my brain is wired to worry about what the bible says.

    You sound as though you come from a religious background so I'll tell you this. There's stuff in the Bible that is so strict that technically we are all going to fry in hell. All you can really do is try to live your life as good and Morally as you can according to the good book and go to church.

    The bible, like all other religious books, are works of fiction. Not all religions can be true but they sure can all be false (and are).

      *snaps fingers* well said my man. Honestly it's all so convoluted and confusing, no "God" can blame us for not knowing wtf to do.

    Stop reading the Old Testament for a while and read the Gospels. (the first four books of the New Testament, which deal with the life of Christ) Being obsessed with your own damnation isn't what Christianity is about and I doubt it's what any creator would want for his children. If that's all you can think about, maybe you have something in your past that you need to come to terms with or let go of.
