You're welcome Smile

Ah okay, I see. Can you tell us what country you are in?

Maybe you could use some sort of online dating to find possible atheist partners?

As for bringing up kids, my simple advice is to teach them how to think, not what to think. You can make them aware of different religions when they are old enough to understand what they mean, and then talk it through with them. Most likely, a kid who hasn't been indoctrinated or filled with magical thinking will recognise religious texts for what they are, ie. ridiculous stories.

Maybe my website will help, it's aimed at new atheists. It includes some advice about how/if to tell people about it and plenty more:

Don't panic, it's an important transition and it will take time to get used to in such a religious country. Many have been through it on this forum and will provide support and advice I'm sure Smile

You are no different than before, religion wasn't doing anything. You haven't lost anything.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
