When I was a young man I thought I was "raised Catholic" because my Catholic parents took me and my siblings to church weekly until we were each 18. But the older I got, the more I realized how fantastic they were at shielding me and my siblings from Catholic brainworms, after seeing what actually happens to the actual "raised Catholic" victims.
Both are being raised catholic, just in different ways. Conservative catholics don't have a monopoly on the labels of the religion, but it sure seems like it could slide that way in the general public perception :/
Thinking back on it I realize how much they trusted me and my siblings to make our own decisions on religion. They never brought up religion in the home. They just brought us to church (which was definitely more of a social-pressure small-town thing in those days), let us listen, and think about it all ourselves.
