Just curious. Did anyone else get pissed out when they became conscious and realize all the bullshit we had been spoonfed from the time we were born.

It wasn't just religious. Between my father's aspirational middle-class nonsense and my mother's neurosis, it took a complete nervous breakdown and decades to come to terms with life as it really is and come out of the fog. I never know whether to blame them or blame my own stupidity so I'm not pissed off at them or the world. I must admit it is sad though. Such a waste of valuable time. I stay busy making every minute count.

A certain amount of anger might be necessary for a while to keep from being sucked back into religious dogma. Eventually the anger fades into the background as it is not needed.

More embarrassed than pissed off.
Both reactions are a waste of energy though.

Embarassed too. I agree with Seth Andrews that Christianity made me talk like an idiot.
No...never had a religion. Guess I was lucky that my parents were freethinkers,
