This was awesome to experience, religion forbids you from many pleasures of life, once I found out religion isn't true I felt a "feelin' good" rush through my body because I realised I wasn't restricted from the "good" parts of life.

What's good about living a celibat life (nuns or w/e do), abstaining from e.g pre marital sex and bacon and everything that can give you a good time when there is no god to punish you for it? What is there even to punish? Burning in hell for eating bacon because it tastes good? Burning for eternities because you found out masturbating gives a good feeling? Religions are a mental prison.
