I was raised atheist. I became Christian. I no longer practice or follow atheism.

@hippyjoe1955 atheist is not a religion, i know that’s hard for conspiracy theorists to understand.

@Greyjedi it is much more a religion than any other

@hippyjoe1955 Lol I'm the opposite - was sort of 'christianised' then became religious then dumped religion so I have the benefit of both sides of the fence. I've never been dunk dunked and none of my children have ever been 'churchified'. Even my 5 y/o. My ex and I have actually *agreed* on something without fighting to not put our daughter in religious education classes at primary school from next yr (it's free choice to elect one way or the other here now).

@hippyjoe1955 no its the absence of religion

@Greyjedi religion has nothing to do with a god. It is a belief system. I gave up on being an atheist when I realized I didn't have enough faith.
