Good introduction and good name.
Ex-Catholic here. You'll find we're a pretty easy bunch to get along with (mostly), and we have our fair share of theists here from the fun (Catholic_Lady, come on down!) to the utterly insane (I won't need to mention names, you'll soon see who I mean).
Just a word of caution: look out for the people here from Australia: they're weird.
Thanks for the welcome! I've not seen my fellow name checked Catholic yet, but um...spent about two hours lurking before registering and think I saw some of those folks you didn't mention by name.
Know some folks who would go "oh poor Catechesis is to blame" on being an ex-Catholic, but not one of them. Usually, at least in my opinion, people tend to think such things through...at least as far as atheist ex-Catholics go. Hope to not offend anyone, but it seems like a lot, though not all, of the Evangelical ex-Catholics I've interacted with, are all about the Feels and Woo at times.
On the Australians...that warning seems both vague and interesting.

Thanks for the welcome! Kyle's show is pretty fun for the most part, and not offended at all. I'd be the first to agree with him sometimes. After all, it's not a religion it's a relationship...sorry couldn't help myself, so easy to snark people who say that line seriously. Honestly, I watched Sword in the Spirit Publishing's Gramps Goes to College recently, and it offended me way more than anything any atheist has said.
