How much of my personal experience should I tell the world?

How much of my personal experience should I tell the world?
For those of you who don't know, I was raised by moderate christians, who didn't taught me their interpretation of religion until my teenage years (even then, just because I asked them) and because of that I was brainwashed right under their noses by my religious teachers to believe in Hell and other things my parents don't believe. When my parents found that out, they were more concerned about the possibility of me leaving the religion that their screw up. They also showed more concerned towards my unhappiness than the cause of it. You know, caring more about the effect than the cause. 
The reason why I became atheist is because I found out there is no proof for a God and the definition itself is unclear to me.
I sometimes wonder if my parents friends would still want to have anything to do with them if they found out about this incident. I also wonder what the majority would say. I'm not worried, just morbidly curious.
That's why I wonder how much information I should give away. Now it's not the time, I'm not financially stable yet.
