South Park just tackled this very issue. Don't worry, Jesus is a chud now
Man, I think I was an atheist for years before I actually knew it. I disagreed with several things without even noticing for a long time. I'd skip going to church, (hell I would show up sometimes for the beginning and leave just so people would know they saw me that day). I hated LGBT people for a good chunk of it. That kinda stopped after I met some.
Then when someone close to me came out as trans, I didn't even blink or feel weird about it. But the old beliefs still kinda hovered there for a while still.
That shit is hard to shake when it's indoctrinated as bad as it was, mostly because of the fact that the fear of hell is reeeeal. It took a movie bringing up the fact that something that I believed was original to the Bible has been around well before it got put into the Bible. That finally shattered holding onto it, and everything else has been catching up ever since.
I'm finally becoming someone I'm not ashamed of.
That started 9 years ago. I still have a group of friends to get back to that tolerate me back then somehow and I need to reintroduce the new me.
I am sorry but Americans are not Christians. I am atheist since I was born, never beleived but I am living in Christian country (ortodox) and what I am seeing, Americans are Christians only in self proclamation. Nothing in Protestant churches (they are not even that) is Christian. It's pure transactional, and unhuman at it's core. And they are lucky that Jesus doesen't exist because they would burn in hell (together with me as an atheist). So, in a nutshel, American christians are atheists that use religion for justifying all those sins that they are not supposed to make. And this is the ugly truth.
This is almost exactly what brought me out of christianity. I was institutionalised into it from birth. So, I always just glossed over the most obvious problems that people would bring up. If anything, it entrenched me further.
However, I started realising that I had more love and compassion for people than, not just christians, god claims to have, by their own admission.
How can I love a stranger than an all loving God?
It was all downhill from there.
It sounds like all the positive things Christians say about themselves for are just marketing
