I feel maybe I could have been harmful being on this forum and I think it is not best to leave making you’se think I am proud and I don’t care

Now I don’t agree yet with all of Vatican 2 but I bought a copy of the catechism
I am willing to learn. I believe from the references possibly St. Peter is the chief of apostles though orthodox may be able to convince themselves otherwise. Not yet sure but can I be baptised because I believe it a little.
I want to be part of the life of the church and have confession though I think it would be harmful for the priest to say I am forgiven. I want to be part of the community to feel more compassionate and no the effect of my actions and to maybe change my views but I think them right

It annoyed me for Rome to try to convert Russia but I don’t care. The orthodox will stay orthodox because they think it is correct

I am worried however that joining the Catholic Church could lead to some people in the Catholic Church being offended because they will see I am doing so to be selfish and so will not care for their salvation and some may be suicidal

I am worried the person I marry if from the Catholic Church though I will try to marry a Coptic Catholic I am worried she will be a difficult person I will relate to or maybe not if she is Coptic like me even though Catholic

Maybe the devil is making me want to convert to cause people not to have hope because they fear my teachings. An idle mind is a playground of the devil

Or maybe the devil wants me Catholic to destroy Christian teaching

Actually I believe if I convert I will become the antichrist so I won’t convert
 
I’m not sure as to whether you’re using a translator for your post, however the way it is, there are many concerning points in its entirety, and i’m still not getting what you’re trying to convey ultimately. Nonetheless, my suggestion for you is to research and stay still until you arrive at conclusions. If you really want to, you should speak with a priest and discuss whether you can join the next RCIA program. But, first and foremost, you have to remember that this is not something like picking out a football team to cheer for. You are either a Catholic, which means you accept all of it, or you simply are not. No doubt, Christianity as a whole will dodge a bullet by you. So no worries on that end. 2000 years wasn’t good enough for its destruction…

And Jesus said: "Amen, I say to you, this generation (the faithful/Church) shall not pass away, till all things be fulfilled. Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away (Luke 21:32-33)

Is there a Catholic church near where you live? If so, your next step should be to go and talk to a priest there. He will be able to give you much sounder advice than a bunch of anonymous posters on a comments thread.

Thankyou I will see one as soon as I can but try to be prepared first.
 
Wait what? Become the antichrist? I’m assuming you’re using a translator?
 
No I am not. I just feel satan can possess proud people and I think I am proud. Thankyou I was partly not serious. Was not judas a disciple of christ?

I will see a priest but I may convert back to other churches if I feel that is best for me and all others.
 
I am not antichrist I think hopefully. But satan can possess someone who thinks he is a christian because satan possesses all the unsaved. Jesus said when a wicked spirit goes out of a man supposedly from shallow faith and just to support the person who puts his trust in Jesus to believe in Him if he finds the person empty of the Spirit seven other spirits more wicked enter that person and the last state of that man is worse than the first as St Peter says it is better for them not to have known the way than having known it to turn from the holy commandment. Not that it is better to be ignorant if your ignorance is not forgiven but if you were never called. But God calls many so they are without excuse.
 
Now I feel I can’t go back because I may have played with someones hopes. But I accept catholics so they should not be offended. But I will go back only if it seems right. The bible says pursue peace with all people.I am trying to do so. I need to know I am forgiven and have tried to make things right. If I feel it is right to go back I will go back to my church.

I will try to keep in contact with my church and christ and your church just to find out the best path to follow. The important thing is I am in all communities seeking God’s will

If I convert people may be hurt if I leave so better I just be part of the community and see if I can convert. If I go to the orthodox church it is nothing personal it is just to make sure I am on the right path.

OP, is there something we should know here? Are you supposed to be on medication? Is English not your first language? Because right now you’re saying some weird stuff and not making a ton of sense.
 
Yes I take zoloft for depression and zyprexa for wrong thinking.
I never learned how to write well in school but english is my first language even though I know basic arabic.

My converting is mainly to grow as a christian and show care for others
 
I am worried about converting I may not be able to as my church will be upset that I am making others convert and once you convert it makes it more shameful to go back. But I feel I should because of my sins. I see no other right way. Hopefully God will make many members of the churches one though in heart or even perhaps make the churches one . I will still hold my orthodox teaching until I am convinced otherwise. So I will marry no one who I do not think I can make the marriage work. Because she may cheat. I may accept the catholic teaching of remarriage is a sin though I do not believe it is just more virtuous for one person. But I may not marry anyone I do not want to maybe only one I think will not cheat. The problem with the churches being one is if they unite in heresy where will others find a home. The teaching of christ will not be taken seriously. But perhaps God will be able to show the truth through others but I doubt it. When the church can no longer handle the word of God its house will be desolate. The word of God is right it is like gold purified seven times. It shall be kept from this generation forever. Therefore I do not believe I belong in the catholic church because I criticise it. Maybe I should be silent and let them decide if the word of God is good. And for us to grow in the knowledge of God. If the church does not preach others need christ who will listen to protestants?
