What is RE? Religious education? If so, you must have gone to a catholic school of some sort? That's like saying, "I play on an Xbox one but I hate how all this Microsoft crap is being shoved down my throat". If you went to a school like that, what do you expect? They don't teach that in public schools in the way you describe. Furthermore, I've met and seen a ton of non-believers shove what they believe or don't believe down people's throats. Just scroll down. Best example I can think of is Bill Maher (which is where a lot of atheists get their ideas from). That dude is super insulting and others who believe what he says just spout the same vitriol.
