Not a very Christian thing for you to say, unprovoked.

I don't agree... I believe there are many who subscribe to belief in God for all kinds of reasons that have nothing at all to do with actual belief or faith.
If one believes something and is presented with proof to the contrary, it may be logical to change one's belief. I don’t think any such proof, one way or the other, can exist for matters of faith.
It's reasonable to assume that if your faith is so weak that you can become convinced that you were always wrong about it, which is what would be required to go from being a Christian to an atheist, then you never had it in the first place.
It's not logical or intellectually honest to say that God touched my heart (which is a prerequisite of being a Catholic or a Christian) when I was young, and now affirm that he never existed in the first place.
Does that clear it up for you?
