Hell everyone, my name is Marie, i'm 24 i've been an atheist for 8 years. It's difficult being an atheist growing up in a very religious family (i even went to catholic school) I'm tired of having to watch what i say around ppl as i'm sure u all are so i'm glad to be here. hope to meet some cool ppl. Bye! :)

Ex-Cath-a-holic here myself, who also attended Catholic school with women dressed as Batman's mother for my teachers. And, like you, realized it was bullshit at about the same age, but had to keep my mouth shut till I was on my own. Now, I'm pretty outspoken. Hang in there. It does get better.
