I am an ignorant atheist.

Most people here have been exposed to religion through indoctrination and can quote parts of the bible or understand religious claims due to them being a part of the group. I grew up with atheist parents and didn’t even know that religion existed until I hit kindergarten. You can imagine my surprise at 5 years old when all of a sudden, sky wizards came into play! Because I know nothing about the bible, Quran or any other holy text, I feel like a fraud. I know absolutely NOTHING about religion (thankfully) and prefer to keep it that way. That said, I can only use humour to make my case because I have nothing concrete to base my “opinion” on. That said, I also don’t feel like other atheists can take me seriously because I only know one side of the argument. What do you guys think? Am I a fraud because I’ve never known the other side of the argument?
