It also seems to me that most anti-religion and anti-God people usually grew up in Catholic homes. I think this may be because they experience more religion and tradition than the relationship side? Or perhaps they are taught God is out to punish them at every turn?

I don't know, just something I was thinking about.
That is exactly what I think. My hubby is catholic (and I am pretty sure fleshes parents were too. Dad goes to church every sunday, yadda, yadda). I got married in that church, and had to go through a lot to do so. I am not a catholic, I was LUCKY to have the privlege of using their church, since the family had such close ties. Please. And my mother in law, woman is always sending us stuff cause our son hasn't been baptized yet. OH dear god, my child who was born in sin will go to hell if I don't have him baptized before he dies. I doubt it. I prefer to let my son make his own decisions when he is old enough to understand what he is doing.
