Same here. From 12-16 I thought I was an atheist because of how bad religion was stressed and brainwashed in my head that I begin to question the intentions and legitimacy from it. But after reading Siddhartha by Herman Hesse, some things about Confuscious and Daoism, I realized it was never that I didn't believe in God; it was religion itself that beffuddled and annoyed me. I don't attend church b/c I belive that's where most hippocrites are; but I own a bible, and I believe. Once I mastered that you indeed can be spiritual but not neccessarily religious, I understood better. What I hate is when people throw religion at your face and force--even want to implant and mandate it in your head.
