Well, I've 'not believed' for about two months or so, now. I was raised Christian for 17 years - the kind that's taught not to look/hear/listen to/at anything that may contradict christianity. Evolution was evilution and all that kind of stuff.
I'd say that I'm now an atheist - secular humanist, if you want specifics, but I can't help feeling that I miss what I used to have, every now and again.
I now understand why de-converted people turn back to their former religion - but I simply don't believe it's true, nor do I believe it's a morally correct system.
Does anyone have any advice for leaving this childhood indoctrination behind? It's becoming quite a heavy burden.
