Raised Jewish, but not religious. My family's always been fairly secular to begin with, but we celebrated the holidays, and I had to go to Hebrew school to learn some basics about Judaism and prepare for Bar Mitzvah. Ironically, my synagogue was so liberal that I remember learning things in Hebrew school that actually support atheism, like them specifically telling us that the 7 days of creation in Genesis are a metaphor for 7 steps God went through in creating the universe, not literal days.
I honestly don't remember when I first started questioning God's existence, but I must have been pretty young. I considered myself "Jewish, but not religious" through most of my teenage and early adult life until the last couple of years, when I finally abandoned it altogether and embraced the atheist label.
