Self confidence comes with self discovery. Your religion has ruined your self confidence, JL1. It keeps you tied up and gagged, threatened, and afraid to think. The teachings of your religion are why you are afraid to even be different than your family.
Being an atheist does not mean you have to be a vocal anti-theist. In fact, just like we hate when people proselytize to us, we are not fond of atheists who go around "preaching" atheism uninvited. (That's why we come here.)
"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
