Should I become Catholic again?

Question

I was baptised as a baby and had my first communion but never went through my confirmation. Faith was never an integral part of my life so naturally I became agnostic and borderline atheist. I've always suffered with mental illness and never felt like I belonged anywhere. A part of me thinks that I'm just trying to use this as a way to cope with my current condition. The thing I like about the church is the history and traditions but I'm not sure if I actually believe in it or I'm just trying to convince myself of something. I guess I just want to find meaning in this life. I don't know if I'm fit for organized religion or not.

No. The Catholic religion holds many false beliefs. Many of their traditions, teachings and beliefs are unscriptual and are rooted in paganism. The religion has adopted many pagan beliefs , which have no place in true worship.

If you study the Bible indepth, and study the Catholic religion, you'll see for yourself that their worship is not acceptable to the God of the Bible. The religion as a whole brings reproach upon Gods name.

Before considering being part of any religion, it's best to some research. No all paths lead to God

All religions were created by men, not invisible gods. Of all Western religions, the Catholic Church has the richest set of pagan rituals, iconography, over-blown robes and church decoration, and a host of other excesses.
Investigate the E\astern meditation-based ways of life as opposed to those that require you to grovel before an invisible friend who will never do a damn thing for you.

If you feel that kind if calling, if you are feeling drawn back to it, then yes, you should at the very least explore it.

I don't know I've just been thinking introspectively lately. I want to understand why christianity in general was able to influence so much of history and shape entire societies.

Go to Mass and see if you feel welcome and comfortable. I'd also suggest that you talk to a priest.
