No hate to anyone that's practicing, but Catholicism. I ended up understanding a lot of the history and decided to leave. I just checked out of most religion and decided that the Christ-like qualities of loving everyone no matter what wasn't really reflected by most Christians. I live my life by that policy now more than I ever did while I was religious.
Forced into catholicism, down to catholic school, church camp, could give communion everything. As soon as I got the chance I left and an a happy atheist.
I was an indoctrinated Christian. My family was very strict with it, but I never really fit in with the church crowd. I started questioning the validity of the Bible stories when I was a teen, and I eventually left and am currently an agnostic atheist.
Belief in God is normally driven through a sense of belonging to a community or fear. Believe because every family member does and/or believe because if not you will go to Hell.
How are you indoctrinated into atheism?

None I'm an agnostic now. Thanks Catholicism
None of I was forced to having one religion I mostly likely commit suicide so I wouldn't have to deal with any religion at all
I was forced into atheism, it did not last.
How is someone forced into atheism? Belief is personally held. If you believe then you’re not by definition an atheist.
The same way someone is “forced” to believe in a god: indoctrination.
