Does your experience with religion as a child influence how you approach Atheism?

3. Nope.

1. Perhaps, but not being a member of both of those groups, I can't say.
2. My hostility toward Christianity stems from years (over a decade) of being bullied by Christians for a variety of things directly related to their religious beliefs.
3. I have family members who would constantly try to "save me" if they thought that I wasn't a God-fearing Christian like them. Turns out that if you don't say anything about what you do and don't believe, people like to assume that you're just like them...then bully and ostracize you when they learn you're not.
4. Maybe. I have not intention of "coming out" to anyone who may even have a potential connection with my family. Most of my family would probably be fine with it, but they're the ones I don't get to see very often. I'd wind up estranged from most of the family I have to deal with regularly.
