I know what you mean. I'm struggling with this too. Recently I've had a lot of doubts. But it all boils down to the fact that the world would be more peaceful without religion. I've kind of concluded that I do still believe in God, but I just don't want to be associated as a Christian, only because of how terrible *some* Christians are, and how children are blindly forced into it. I'm 22, and while I still believe in God, I don't think I need to prove it by going to church around all those fake people. I wouldn't go if it weren't for my grandma, to be honest. She's having a lot of health problems and I don't want to give her anything else to worry about, because I love her and I don't want to hurt her. Other than that, I don't really want anything else to do with church people. I've heard the stuff they say about people and I think its hypocritical. So I don't know where to go from here honestly. Just stay true to yourself and don't let anyone sway you in either direction you're not comfortable with. If you don't want to believe, no one has the right to make you, and if you DO want to, no one should talk you out of it. Its up to you, and the true answer will come from within.
Is it normal to wish I believed in god?
