What was it like growing up in a religious household?

I am 19 years old. During my life, it was a pagan who did not have a god (except when I was 8 years old and when I was playing with God for a while).

Most of my family think that it is an agnostic or atheist, not including my stepmother and my mother, they all think they are Christians.

So, I have never been baptized and never said that I was sent to Sunday school, I was told to pray before class, nor did I go to hell.

In short, I am very easy. Only when I was about 15 years old, I found that there was a dispute about lack of faith (especially in the United States and a very conservative country).

What is your experience? As I said, this is still new to me and it shocks me every time I have no choice but to ask: what is the feeling of being an atheist of a religious family?

TLDR: My family is an atheist so I will never be rejected or punished by my "evil way".

I grew up in a Jewish family, learned about the persecution history of my people, I felt that I live in the country I think is safe for religious minorities. The way they worship lives in the country where people are targeted, so I heard a story as I grow up. That is why Donald Trump and his government are continuing to attack Muslim society, so I can not keep silent. Last November it was difficult for me to digest the results of the elections in 2016 and the strong resistance to communities left behind by society. I feel that both Jews and Americans must participate in my voice to support the American Muslim community. As a professor at Mills College, I contacted my Muslim students, expressed solidarity and asked how I can help fight anti - Muslim hate and prejudice.

I did not grow up in religious families. My parents have no positive religious experience and they are growing; because he was married to a non-Catholic, my mother did not even see her father's grandfather. They are not atheists, but for a long time we did not go to church and talked about God. It was not special for me until I noticed that many friends, like Catholics, grew up at school. They talk about God, Jesus, and go to school on Sunday. I did not confess, so I will go to hell.

My parents, who grew up with religious and devout Roman Catholic families, may not think they have such a scientific culture. The opposite - at least, for my father. He has been a scientist for a lifetime and has been using it everyday for nearly 30 years. At the same time, he firmly believes in his religious view and planted these ideas in my 6 brothers and sisters and each of them. Through all the religious sermons I contacted at this moment in my life, I also did not believe it. Ironically, I really began to doubt that I attended Catholic High School. My religious class teacher (Yes, the religious class is one thing) is confident in the problems related to supernatural miracles related to Jesus.
