Dear ex-theists

[Assimilate]

Raised Catholic, I was pretty young when I had doubts, mainly that with all the religions present how can you be sure which was right. Around the time of my conformation.. maybe when I was 12 or 11, I can't remember that exact age, but the stories of the bible just smelled like BS to me. The fact that it was enforced like absolute truth didn't help to convince me, voicing this to my mom she basically punished me, we started going to church again and I was enrolled to CCD a following year, even though she said I could be done after I received my conformation.

Going to church again didn't last long, but any ways I kept my views to myself, until a couple of years ago when I started exploring atheism more.
