Did you have some sort of affirmation that you were a Christian?
The thing is, to say 'I'm a former Christian' sounds natural and correct in informal speech, and for many situations that is all that is required. In fact, I did say prayers and go to confessions among other Catholic rituals.
I am also a former believer in Santa Claus.
