I think your reasons are very commendable. Myself, I was quite rebellious against my parents, meaning whatever they said and did, I did the opposite. Even so, I couldn't tell them I didn't believe in god until three years after I came to that conclusion, and I only did it because I was so goddamn sick of being forced to go to church.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
