Ex Theists

August 11, 2009 at 3:51 am

How many atheists here started their lives as theists and how many have never been religious? Also, do you think that those who became atheist later on in life are better equipped to argue the case for atheism than those who have never been subjected to religious indoctrination?

For example, I didn't even realise I was an atheist until my teens and thought it very strange that people gave me a specific name for something that I didn't believe in or gave very little thought to.
