Ex theists: what did you believe?

[abaris]

Weren't most ex-theists just cultural theists who only called themselves theists because their family forced them to attend religious services?

That's a rather broad assumption without any base in reality. Where does your "most" come from other than your ass? You simply can't know that.

As for me, you're about 50 percent right. I never gave a real shit. But I wasn't forced to go to church either. Once I was old enough to do some independent thinking, I found that the peices just don't add up.
