Basically I just need to know that other atheists out there have been hurt badly by their family as well.
I grew up in a religiously strict household, and I'll gladly be the first one to step onto the Heathen Soapbox (with a bullhorn if needed) and acknowledge that religion can utterly destroy an otherwise healthy childhood, both domestically and socially.
