Nuh uh.
You don't choose to believe or disbelieve, you just do. And if you believe you're going to hell if you disobey, you aren't leaving.
Religion controls women. Tells them to submit to their husbands. Makes them inferior to men. Tells them what to do or not do with their bodies, what to wear and what not to wear, how to behave and how to express and not express their sexuality. It raises them to be obedient, on pain of eternal torture.
If you really believe, you're too scared to leave. And if you're not taught to think for yourself, it's hard to disbelieve.
None of this has ever been my experience.

Haha!
Are there atheist dating sites?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
