(my experience) i did. i was scared to admit that i had my doubts, but i knew deep, deep down i couldnt truly believe, even though i wanted to believe... all those years i felt trapped, it seemed like it was very wrong to doubt. it seemed like everyone was able to believe except me. it also felt like an obligation to believe. and that fed my fear even more to admitting my doubts. therefore, it felt like i lacked the freedom to express and admit how i truly felt.
i jumped those hurdles (slowly, but i managed) and now i am openly what i truly always was...atheist. one of the biggest things that made me realize it was safe to not believe, is the fact that i live in a free country where i can be who i am and believe what i do believe (it took me a long time to realize that).... i am very thankful for that!
may i please hear some of YOUR experiences??
