I would attribute it to a combination of higher than average IQ and a predisposition towards critical thinking. 132 when I was in 5th grade. I got put into the "gifted" program with much better teachers and a STEM focused education. Plus I went to a de-regulated high school in FL where 92% of my graduating class went to college, 75% to four year colleges. I then went to a college that only offers Bachelors of Science degrees.
My family is staunchly religious. My mother and father raised us all up in the church. I remember always being skeptical. I think at some age when I was very young I accepted the whole god thing, but I don't remember believing. I have always questioned everything, especially tradition. That certainly wasn't something my parents taught me, so I don't know where it came from.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
