Cause I'm a girl whose Catholic and but now I feel like converting to satanism cause I'm having doubts about God,Jesus, and if I'm truly loved by them stuff like that. And I was just wondering if I should convert to it?

You do not convert to something because of doubts in something else.
Doubts in Jesus may have to become atheist. Even a Satanist believes there is a God, believes there is a Jesus.

So what do you know about Satanism, what have you studies, how many of their services have you attended.

Why do you doubt? It's okay to question things that are difficult to understand. Maybe you're agnositc....unsure.

No. Do you know what it is? Do you feel a need to belong to an 'ism?' Doubts about being loved, what's that about?
If you aren't sure about God and Jesus loving you, try Hinduism. Many gods and goddesses to explain all the joys and sorrows and unfairness of life.
Many who question like Buddhism, which isn't a religion so much as a way of life.

I think it unwise to make such a radical choice because you are unsure of your faith. Feeling unloved is not unusual when we are at a low point, or confusing time in our lives for whatever reason, but that's what faith is all about isn't it, believing in the love even when we don't see or feel it. God's love is free, Satan's is NOT, so figure out and understand what price you pay for that love you are so desperate to feel.

Those of NO faith need neither God or the Devil to love them, so where are YOU? Better to do NOTHING until you can answer that question for yourself. Why convert to anything until you understand what you are converting to, so what do you know of satanism?

As others have said you have MANY other options besides satanism to feel love, or heal the hole in your soul.

Hi!

I would do your research and decide for yourself. Faith, regardless of where it is placed, is an intensely personal thing. It helps to shape your world view and interactions with the people around you. It isn't a matter, as you're already finding out, of shoe horning yourself into a religion but a matter of finding a faith that agrees with you.

There isn't anything wrong with Satanism, it is just another religion. I would caution you from cults though, those can be a little bit troublesome. Don't be afraid to go out into your community and talk with religious figures. Visit a mosque, or a synagogue, or a Mormon Church, or talk to another of another faith. See how their beliefs and faith affects their lives.

This is a voyage of personal discovery, don't shy away from anyone nor let anyone steer your course. Find something that works for you. Good Luck!
