I am pro-choice, don't go to church on Sundays, don't put stock in the Bible or doctrine, challenge traditional ideas of religion and spirituality and care infinitely more about trying to be a kind, humble person than actively worshipping.

When it comes to hard core atheists, I would say that majority of these people were brought up in Catholic homes. To me, that speaks volumes without saying much. Many atheists that I have encountered, they know more about the bible than I do. They know about biblical contradictions, hypocrisy and gender demeaning. I have never butted heads with atheists because they are simply stating facts, but I have to admit, I did and still do learn a ton from them.

Catholics usually don't know much about the bible. For biblical knowledge, you need an ex-christian fundamentalist. Catholics aren't taught the bible in great detail like fundies are. I was raised as a christian fundy and am now an atheist, and most of the atheists I know are ex-christer fundies. I can run rings around catholics when the subject is the bible.
