I don't think you need to have been part of a religion to feel affected by it. This is especially true if you're an atheist from say, Southern Europe, Latin America, The Middle East or Africa, where religion is still incredibly pervasive to where everyone is affected whether they believe or not.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
