Is it normal that i want to believe in jesus but...
I struggle to maintain this belief. I feel like I should deep down but I can't fully convince myself to. I believe in God, I believe in the holy spirit.Why can't I accept Christ? I feel like I need to fully understand him and his history, why there are parallels between him and Siddhartha Guatama, etc. Some might say that the parallels were put there to distract from the truth. I find this so confusing. It's hard to believe the story of Jesus was real and absolutely literal.
As for my background, my family is not super religious. My dad drilled a few beliefs in my head and those are the ones I question the most I think. I have always enjoyed exproling various religions, I love learning new things about them.
