How many atheists here had a Catholic upbringing?

RE: How many atheists here had a Catholic upbringing?
I went to the religious indoctrination bullshit as a kid. Had communion, got confirmed. And I did it because I was told to. After confirmation I never went to church again. Been 38 years and counting! Fortunately, my parents weren't churchgoers and I didn't volunteer to go. Not because I didn't believe, but because I found church services to be so damn boring!
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
