I appreciate your honesty here. But still, note, you were in somewhat religious, Catholic schools all along, it seems....
It's very hard to totally shrug all that off. Unless you really try pretty hard.
When I began to see the religious bias in my childhood education, I made a very strong, conscious, deliberate effort, to try to counterbalance that. With a lot of reading about atheist Marxism and culture and so forth.
When I did that, it gradually became very clear how thoroughly we had all been manipulated by priests and ministers and churches. Especially it became clear to me that deep inside their demand that we have "faith," was also their command to us, to never really think critically or objectively, about the chief ideas of Christianity.
In effect, they were attacking intelligence, reason, science, objectivity. Or simply too? Honesty.
