I go to a Catholic girls school and I've been going there for 2 years. When I started, I considered the possibility of a god and Jesus and all that stuff, but I've decided, after learning more about Christianity and other religions, that all religion is a load of tosh and isn't at all plausible. Especially things like 'there is a man all around us all the time who created everything and knows everything you do even before you do it and he had a son who was born from a virgin who performed miracles and rose from the dead and then ascended into hevan and sits at the right hand of god' I just think its stupid. So, basiclly, is it normal to think things like this and every time someone starts going on about how god saved them or helped them win something I feel like slapping them and telling them its all crap and none of it is real???
Are You Normal?
Ask your question today!
These are beginning to get more common than the "IIN that I'm a virgin at [insert age here]" posts and the "IIN that I've never had a bf/gf at [insert age here]" posts.
YES, it's NORMAL to think religion sucks. It's NORMAL to be an atheist. So can we PLEASE stop having all of these posts that ask the same flipping questions?
Not normal to slap a priest.
I also thumbed you up from -1
Ironically religious people always get very emotional about these subjects.
Keep your judgement in the church I say. Normal people are speaking now :D
I mean normal.
Glad to hear the younger generation are getting to the truth.
Now remember, according to 'them', you love this common dead man (jesus) more than your only family or any love ones in your life, including your own children one day!
I say get out whilst you still can. These 'catholics' are known to be the worst.

ps: It is highly unlikely that an actual literal Hell exists.
A place of torment for ALL humans who do not believe in Christ, where they will be in constant pain and suffering for ALL time.
It would take an unreasonable, illogical, unloving, malevolent, vindictive, vengeful, sadistic, and evil God to allow for such a situation.
So if you were absolutely sure you could get away with it and you were alone out in the woods with someone you hated, would you kill them?
If not, then why? And where did these feelings come from?
Do you follow a religion?
Yes- atheist
Change schools or deal with it until you get out! Slapping people because of their beliefs is usually frowned upon and is usually called assault. The question which must be answered is how would you feel if people told you that your beliefs are full of shit. How would you feel being slapped because if you disbelief in the catholic or Christian belief system
