Same. Although the biggest blow was learning about Christianity's history. I find it impossible to maintain belief that Christianity could be correct in light of it. Just listening to different Christian sects debate their own religion will give you that impression. Like learning about early Christian schisms was wild and even just how the Bible was assembled was a thing. Not sure how you can maintain divinity when so many of the core tenants were settled through bribery and skullduggery.

Honestly this. The more and more interested I became to learning about Christianity the more I start to see just how man-made it really was.

Some of my friends call me an asshole because I still lie to my parents that I'm a practicing Southern Baptist, but I just can't bring myself to tell them the truth that I'm an atheist because I know my mom would get a heart attack. I love them too much to say the truth to them.
