I similarly left Christianity from a far more fundamentalist sect and yes: the coercion is significant on all levels. It's scary once you realize what's been going on.

It's an incredibly controlling form of human culture and not given its due wariness.

    Yeah I told my partner about some of the stuff that goes on and her first thought was 'they shouldn't allow kids in religion until they're old enough to decide for themselves'.

    It's the correct decision that will never happen - Children have no rights^+^ in modern society.

    Any zealous religious parent being told they can't bring up their child in their religion would throw an absolute shitfit.

    ^+^The only "right" of a child is framed in terms of parental responsibilities.
