Fully agree.
I think you will find that there are lots of atheists (including myself) who grew up in the church and have been exposed to christianity and christian apologetics. Many of us have no ill feelings towards the church, nor towards those who are still in the church. It just so happens that we just stopped believing. I wouldn’t say that I have no emotions attached to religion since I am a human being, but I certainly don’t hold any negative emotions towards religion. I also think that my story is quite common among atheists.
