Although, I was brought up as a Christian, It wasnt extreme, it was just what I knew, it was fact. Jesus died for me and that was that. About 1 year ago the doubts started. Of course I tried to strengthen my faith 2 months ago, it worked for about 3 weeks and my faith went down the shitter again lol. I always questioned the existence of Jesus. I remember saying something to my dad when I was like 13 about how do I KNOW he is real? He just told me to have faith. About 2 weeks ago I looked in to atheism and it was like holy crap this is how I've felt for a very long time. It clicked. So now I'm leaving christianity. My question is how do I go about this decinversion process? How do get rid of these morals and fear of hell that have been branded upon me? What do I do?
First off, my conversion was a slow process and I never experienced this myself. I think you need to ask WHY, if you don't belief in god why would you fear hell.
And don't you dare get rid of your morals, they're what make us human. You do not throw the morals and principles your parents taught you aside when you deconverent.
Posted this to explain why I suggest you ask WHY
