That's how I was raised. My dad's an atheist, and my mom is a Lutheran. Of course, the "think for yourself" thing was equally promoted by the pastor of the church I attended as a youngin'. Like some have said here--the teacher makes all the difference, and my pastor, by encouraging us to be scholastic about our faith, ensured that I will always be a Lutheran (though I now attend an Episcopalian church).
