Introduction
As an atheist , I think that it is futile for me to try to counter the theist by dogmatically asserting that god does not exist, but rather to ask why it is necessary to believe in god and how it is possible to live without god.
How atheism has affected your life, e.g., relationship with friends/family/co-workers, leaving church, finding atheist friends, self-perception, life choices, etc.

Well , I tend to be in the closet with religious people however , I my close friends are scientifically oriented. please see 'my story' http://atheists.meetup.com/577/boards/thread/4980717

How you came to be an atheist ? e.g., via scientific study, historical/archeological study of religion, just ?knowing,? a combination of things, something else,

please see 'my story' http://atheists.meetup.com/577/boards/thread/4980717

- Doubts about religion: When you started doubting, nature of your doubts, reasons for doubting, age at which you considered yourself a non-believer,...?

please see 'my story' http://atheists.meetup.com/577/boards/thread/4980717

- What are some recollections of the role of religion played in your childhood ? e.g., things you heard at home, in church, in Sunday school, events that affected you (e.g. deaths, illness, tragedy)?

I remember attending several Bat/Bar Mitzvah's and being really envious ! please see 'my story' http://atheists.meetup.com/577/boards/thread/4980717

What was your family?s religion or the religion you were raised in (if any)?

I was raised without religion. please see 'my story' http://atheists.meetup.com/577/boards/thread/4980717
