~No, you are not a sycho, or even a psycho. You have joined the age of enlightenment. Rejoice. But if you are feeling guilty and afraid, wait until the full moon, go out into your backyard at midnight, disrobe, twist the head off a live pigeon, run around in a counter-clockwise circle three times while chanting in a primal scream "Yam-taka-koo-gai-moo-gu-gai-ping". It will work as well as prayer, but you'll feel so much better.

It is not just you. A lot of Christains talk about God but will act out of hate. For example the people in the Ku Klux Klan are not atheists. They are Christians but they hate blacks and call them something else.
Before WW2, Germany had a civil war between the Protestants and Catholics. the Catholics killed the Protestants and then when on to take over Austria, Poland and France. They intended to take over the world.

Try to spend some time with God in prayer. Sometimes I feel really frustrated with God and all I need to do is calm down and pray to him. Also get a new Bible and read it, some stuff in there can help you. Just don't do anything stupid, I'm sure that you still believe in him and you will be fine, just don't turn away from him. You know in your heart that this is the way for you, just as all Christians know that.

There must be a reason you feel you're being pulled away from God, but whatever it is God will never leave you. You can always confess your sins to Jesus and he will forgive you and give you the grace you need to move forward. Find a Bible believing church that where you can learn and fellowship and stay connected to Jesus. You're not crazy....just a little off the path.

Church and God are two different things entirely, don't worry about what "believers" are telling you, you have to trust what your heart is telling you. I don't believe in Religion, but I do believe in God. Maybe you just need to get some distance from your church to gain a different perspective... you may find that you miss some aspects of the Church or it could be that you'll be glad you left - only time will tell.

What is going on with you? Hating God and burning your Bible is serious stuff, you know that. What is making you so angry? Are you angry with your church itself? The only advice I can offer is to pray and pray alot. That may not help to turn to God when you feel like you hate him, but He will help you. He will also forgive you. Im not sure whats going on b/c there sounds like there is more to this story and I am so sorry you feel this way and I hope you find your way back home. Get another Bible and read it, seek His guidance. Heb13:5 "...I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you," Good luck and God bless. Email me if I can help you.

The Baptist Church can drive a person crazy. Move on to better things.

No, it sounds like you're having conflict with your faith. Lots of people go through that. My old high school friend had the same issues with her religion and ended up just leaving it altogether. Maybe there is something in your particular religion that is causing you to feel unsettled, talk with your minister, someone from the same congregation or a family member. to see if you can figure out what is causing you to have this crisis of faith.

if you believe and you don't want to be pulled away from God, then you need to reestablish your relationship with Him. Repent for what you have done and resist the temptation of being pulled away from Him. You need Him in your life. And He loves you and wants you to love Him, and trust in Him. Even if you don't go back to church, you need to talk to Him and pray. sometimes, this happens to those who have a strong relationship with God; it's the "Devils" way of making you abandon your God. Fight back, resist the temptation.

I think you have some issues that have come up that you just do not feel that God is handling quite the way you want Him to. If you gave your heart to Him, even when you feel totally abandoned, God is micro-managing your life constantly. God allows trials to strenghthen us not necessarily for ourselves, but to help others who are in the same boat.
