God and teens...?

Question

Ok, is it normal for teenagers to wonder about god...Such as if there is a god or isent... Because Im kinda in that stage...and I guess im wondering is that normal for a 15 year old?

Answer 1

dont believe christian propaganda, its always normal...these stupid people tell you its not okay to do so because they dont want you switching religions...there are alot of religous leaders out there that do this in order to simply gain status in society and gain more members and it results in brainwashing and doubts like yours.

Answer 2

In the name of Allah the most gracious the most merciful.
Brother not only is it very Normal to wonder about God Almighty
at this age,But it is a blessing to the youth to reach a high
standard of Faith and and character.God almighty loves a youth
who spends his time in prayer and worship and has promised such a yound man that he will Shade him on the Day of Judgement where there will be no shade But the shade of God almighty.I congraluate you that having been born in the Faith that
is practised in your famliy, you are not completely accepting the
Beliefs and hence the womdering Of the excisting of God.
God is the creator of this universe and all tnat is in it above it
and under it.He is the one and only one God and none has the
right to be worshipped but him.we were Created for this very
purpose to acknowledge our creator and worship him on His
terms and conditions.IF i show you a new piece of equipment
that no one has seen before and ask you who is the person who would be able to tell you exactly what were its mechanics and
operations and you would say of course it is the manafucaturer, or the producer or the creator or the inventor of the Equipment.
And so if any one asks a Muslim to prove the existence of God
almighty , we show him the Holy Scriptures ,That is the Quran
and prove logicall , reasonabely and with scientific evidence how the world came into existence By the big bang , The stages
of a human embreyo in the mothers womb, and hundreds of
scientific facts with 100% accuracy which was revealed 1400
years ago which science has only lately Discovered . so we
conclude that who could Have told The Prophet Muhammad [
peace be on him ] about these creations except the Creator
himself, avery simple and straight foward logic.
Every Child is born is born in a pure innate nature of the worship
of one God[ Islam ] but it is his/ her parents guardian who make
him a chtistian, a hindu, a buddist ect.We ask God almighty to
guide you to his Religion of truth.

Answer 3

It's normal for anyone to wonder if that invisible, omnipotent being people keep telling you to worship actually exists. And if you look into it a bit, you might realize that pretty much every god ever thought up has said the same thing. But then you realize that there's really no proof or any evidence, and that the books supposedly 'inspired' by god are full of contridictions and mistakes. And then you realize that you were right - there is no god.

Answer 4

Of course it's normal!

Doubt can occur at any age - especially if there is something traumatic. Being a teenager now-a-days isn't necessarily easy. And we as a society put a lot of stress on teens. From SATs to preparing to get into college long before your 18th birthday - the stress is on high.

If you have a pastor or trusted adult I would go talk to them. Someone who is not going to judge you or condemn you for having doubts. Someone who is going to be supportive of you and help you navigate the waters - so that you can grow stronger and closer to God. In whatever way that may be.

And always talk to God. Tell God everything you're feeling and ask for help. God isn't going to whack you down because you feel unsure or are in need of help. God is there to help you every step of the way. All you have to do is ask.

If you ever want to talk - feel free to IM me. I was a Christian for a couple of decades. My husband still is. Both of us are willing to listen.

Answer 5

It's normal at any age, but I've always thought that it was especially common for teens. It's just simple human nature and since teens are on an emotional roller coaster, it makes them doubt a LOT of things, including what comes from the religious world. Not to mention you probably have lots of different religious people at school shoving things down your throat. I had that problem when I first stepped foot into high school.

"The God of the Bible"
(Why many are skeptical ...)
http://www.watchtower.org/library/lmn/article_04.htm

By coincidence, I was 14yo when I literally prayed , "God, if you exist, please tell me who you are!" I had asked around, trying to get answers to the disturbing things I saw going on in the world. The church ministers I questioned, though, gave answers that went contrary to the Bible (which I had read parts of growing up). After my prayer, I asked a relative that wasn't religious, yet went to church. She advised me to ask my questions of another relative, who she knew to be one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I did, & she began answering them right away. I was skeptical, until I checked everything being told me in my Bible. I found it all in the Scriptures, just as I'd been told.
Many people of various ages become aware oftheir spiritual need, and begin searching. That is very normal. It is also something to take very seriously.

Answer 7

It is absolutely normal.... and not just with teens. At any age, sometime or another we all do wonder about God. I suppose you just have to let it pass because you will definitely pass the stage. Believe me...been there done that

Answer 8

Yes, many teens wonder that, but few will take the time to study and come to an honest answer with themselves about it.

I'll tell you this though:

Life without God is no life at all.

I will be praying that God shows you His truth that you may know it & believe in Him.

Answer 9

At this age your childhood is finishing & youth is comming. In childhood when your mind was developing your parents were helping you to grow.
But now the harmones are changing, Brain is reorianting it is your work to let it grow in right direction for your own benifit for your own development. Becuase what ever you wil ever be you are becoming Now. Scientifically if you are a girl you should eat Iron & protien rich diet. Because menstruation causes Iron loss & it leads to less concentration.
