Like many people, I used to be Catholic, eventually converted to an agnostic. I feel conflicted, I believe in something but I don't know what, I don't feel comfortable being an atheist or agnostic, and I don't feel like being a Catholic. I feel conflicted, I feel anxious, what do you people recommend, what should be my next steps?

Do you believe in a divine power? Not "God", the guy with the beard and white robe, but a force outside our known realm of existence that may or may not have had a hand in our creation. If you do, but do not follow any particular religion, that makes you either a Deist or a Theist. If you think that revelation is straight up bull shit, then you're a Deist. If you welcome the possibility of revelation being true in one form or another, then you're a Theist. I am a Deist. For a long time I called myself an Agnostic Theist, but a certain special someone made me look into it and reevaluate (and also learn the actual meanings of the words I use) what I believe in.
