I grew up Catholic, and I drifted away from the church as a teenager since no one who's involved in it took it seriously. When I started looking for spirituality/religion again a few years later, I started by looking for Christianity. I find Jesus fairly powerful, and that he has quite consistently been a positive force in my life, so it seemed to make sense. There's a fundamentalist church near where I grew up that I went to once, and it's fairly clear from that experience that whatever they're worshipping is demonic.

I think the absent religion of the local Catholic church is better than that! So the fact so many people come out of it as atheists surprises me not at all. I'm fairly confident that had I grown up in such a church I'd be one myself...
