Raised Roman Catholic here too. I went to an all-girls Catholic high school, and the moment that did it for me was when an administrator (a nun) called me into her office to reprimand me because parents of prospective students had called her to say that I was telling "everyone" that our school made you gay. Then she proceeded to tell me I could "get help" for any homosexual urges I might be experiencing (this is especially hilarious because I was in a heterosexual relationship at the time). I very politely told her my sexual orientation was no one's business and to expect me not to return in the fall (this was a big deal because of a scholarship I had to their school).

Anyway, that's how I ended up at a public fine art school and a stout atheist.
