I have a question. In your story, you never said that you went to see if your church had answers to the usual atheist arguments. Have you? I don't mean asking just anyone, I mean asking someone who was trained in religion and has studied the real objections and the answers. Christianity has been answering the very toughest questions for two thousand years by tens of thousands of people writing hundreds of thousands of books in hundreds of languages. It is important to realize, there are no new objections to Christianity that this generation stumbled upon. Christianity is not on the decline, and certainly not because of "science" or any other such nonsense you may read in your narrow sources of information. You may have a caricature of Christianity in your head that is not real and the arguments you think are successful are not as successful as you think.
Anyway, welcome. I really enjoy people who are looking for honest discussion (as you seem to be).
