Honestly, probably the Bible, but that was over 20 years ago.

Having a father who was a pastor and the head of the local Gideons, there were always dozens of bibles around the house. But being given my own copy that I could highlight/make notes in as a birthday present just prior to jr. high was the beginning of freeing myself from Christianity.

I didn't have the internet and I lived in a small town, so interacting with those critical of Christianity wasn't really an option for me. Being able to note major inconsistencies throughout the Bible, including the core "easter story", was enough to make the scales fall from my eyes.
