How did you become an atheist?

[Excited Penguin]

The responses are just going to be repetitive.

Essentially I was christian, I go to a christian school(still do), and started questioning my beliefs, unprompted. So then I decided to look up arguments online, like "How to beat an Atheist in an argument" trying to get confirmation bias, and in return got a lot of videos disproving it. My favorite channel was "Friendly Atheist" because he disproved all the previous misconceptions I had about atheists, in a friendly, non-condescending manner. Still I didn't like hearing these things that contradicted my belief, I started watching The Atheist Experience, and basically just exploring all the different arguments. After about a month or so of this, I decided that I was agnostic(Without knowing agnosticism and atheism are two different questions), my agnosticism was basically me saying it was a 50-50 chance, which followed shortly after with admitting that it probably wasn't a 50-50 chance and declaring myself an Atheist.

It was really just a personal journey, which will be a common trait with a lot of the responses on this thread. I remained open minded throughout, even though I didn't like it at times and saw it depressing I made an intellectual commitment to figure out what I personally believed/disbelieved, and whether my belief had any validity to it, and now here I am.

That's very cool and inspiring.
