    It’s normal to have doubts. Look at Moses when he asked for proof before he would follow God. He received a burning bush. Noah sent out a crow and a dove, just to make sure there was land out there even though God said He would take care of him. Thomas had to feel Christ’s wounds. I, myself, have had doubts. In fact, it was around your age, too. And while I call myself a Catholic, I don’t agree with everything the Church says. And for many people this is the same way. That is why the Church keeps on changing. Is it a phase? Maybe. But don’t write it off as one. The way I removed my doubts was by surrounding myself in other religions. And the more I explored other religions, the more I found myself being pulled back to the Catholic Church. However, this may not be the case for you. If this is so, don’t fight it. It’s not wrong. It’s who you are. Should you go through with your Confirmation? Only if you want to. But talk it over with your parents. Don’t let them be in the dark. Should you call yourself an agnostic? Again, if you want to. It would lead to less conflict if someone were to ask what religion you are.
