In broad strokes, although I was raised by Christian parents, only one of them was a nut job about it - and he wasn't around much. Left to my own devices, first I filled out a concept of God which I liked a lot and very much assumed to be true. Then I doubted it and rejected it in late elementary school .. so maybe 11 - 13. It wasn't difficult. I never had to defend my position as an atheist to anyone. And since no one knew, no one tried to coerce me into belief. I had it easy.
