This question is for those of you, that used to be somewhat religions at one point. After you stopped believing how did that effect your outlook on society?

It made me realize that "society" is still in its childhood. A grown up doesn't believe in childish myth.

My outlook on society did not change. Everyone has the right to believe what they want without my interference.

I can't say that it changed my outlook on society, just my perception of my own reality. I knew when I was religious that people en mass are basically stupid. (Don't misunderstand, a PERSON is smart, people are stupid panicky animals with mob-mentality). So nothing really changed other than the fact that I didn't believe in their god anymore. It was more the change of society's view of me. I became the enemy and was treated as less than scum.....

Sometimes I feel like a monster or alien, even in the family reunions. Living in a Christians (Mostly Catholic) country is not easy.
I feel free, that's the important thing.

I began to realize how ridiculous a lot of things are....like the heated arguments about homosexuality, things like that. More than ever I found myself just wanting to scream "Can't we all just get along???"

*shrugs* It didn't. I already viewed the world that way. It was a slow gradual process and didn't happen overnight. And it wasn't a devastating realization. It just felt like waking up.
