Hello Ogadi: I see this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to PsychCentral. One additional forum, here on PC, that may be of interest would be the anxiety, panic & phobias forum. Here's a link:

There are a bunch of articles, in PsychCentral's archives, on how to stop obsessing I could provide you with links to. However I know you wrote you can't read anymore. So, just on the chance that you can perhaps check out a couple of short articles, here are 2 on the subject of OCD & religion:

OCD, Guilt and Religion

Scrupulosity: When OCD Targets Your Religious and Moral Values

I hope you find PC to be of benefit.

P.S. My own technique for managing intrusive thoughts, as well as troublesome emotions & similar sorts of experiences is a practice referred to as compassionate abiding. Here's a link to a description of the practice:
