Name: Mathilde
Location: Richmond, Virginia
How long have you identified as atheist: Two years
Do you come from a religious background? If so, which religion? Yes, Methodist.
What music are you usually listening to? I have been listening to a lot of Faun, Bat for Lashes and This Mortal Coil.
What food do you enjoy most? I love real food. My all time favorite is a proper Paella.
What is your favorite movie and why? My favorite movie of all time? That’s a tough one. It’s kind of a toss up between A Walk on The Moon, The Duchess or Goodfellas.
Anything you would like to mention about you and your family, for example, your hobbies, values and interests: I became atheist after many cracks in my former faith and finally researching my way out of the abusive and manipulative cult of Christianity.
I am a mom to three kids. I encourage them to ask questions, take nothing at face value and think for themselves! I also teach them now that they are naturally good and moral and worthy of living the life they dream without needing religion or anyone else’s ideas.
I am 45. I am a federally recognized Native American of the Monacan Nation tribe. I used to attend Methodist Church but began to deconstruct after having a miscarriage in church and after finding the courage to speak up about all the things that did not sit right with me in the Bible and in the Church.
I would love to share more about my story with others. I would love to help others find freedom as I have.
Thank you for sharing Mathilde.
