until we were about 10 and we were allowed to decide if we wanted to keep making up sins to have something to confess (we were very good and didn't sin but the church wasn't satisfied with that) and getting up early for CCD on weekends. The decision was easy...sleep late! The whole family is a bunch of atheists and we aren't afraid of burning in Hell. During my entire life I have met a lot of atheists and most of them had the same life I did...they WERE Catholics and it turned them off of all religion permanently. That is why I was interested in your post so much.
