This article is probably the most important one I have read throughout my research because it so many people especially teenagers go through this as they try to figure out who they are and what they believe in. Almost every person in their life time will be challenged to prove or explain what they believe in and very few know that it is ok to doubt it sometimes, that not knowing all the answers is part of being human. Personally I believe the best way for faith to grow is to struggle, but to struggle well and come out of your doubt understanding why you believe what you do and even though the reasons may not make sense to anyone else they make sense to me. The best part of religion is having something else that no ones else should be able to touch, something that you decide and only you should effect. Everyone chooses their own religion as true, its true because you choose to believe it, its as simple as that.
