I was raised Roman Catholic, but am feeling much better now.
I'm an atheist because religion describes our reality about as well as Flat Earthers describe the shape of our planet.
Same boat but I have heavily leaned towards science. And I think that leaning hard that way has kinda pushed me into being agnostic more than atheist. Have you had similar thoughts?
My faith corroded as my critical thinking skills developed. I'd consider myself a strong atheist on the Dawkins scale.
I haven't seen anything that would nudge me off of my position towards agnosticism.
