I finally got over the last little bit of fear of hell and satan when I was 19/20ish. Note that it was only the fear part keeping me kind of believing in that crap. 2/2

My first step was at Bible camp when I was 10-11. It was "get filled with the Spirit" night, and though I sang and prayed the same as everyone else, I didn't start speaking in tongues. For years I thought I'd been personally rejected by God.

-same- Not at a camp but a wild Pentecostal church where everyone did it, I think I faked it once, I was 9 or 10 years old. I got shipped off to plenty of bible camps though over the years (aka: free babysitting)

I learned several ways to fake speaking in tongues at the same Bible college where Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker met. The History of Christianity class I took there was another significant step towards realizing my own atheism.
