If parents never mention God or religion to their child the child will
naturally develop as an atheist and will have an instilled moral compass
based on their loving upbringing and nothing else.
A corollary?
An upbringing based on religious faith instilling a moral compass based
on the fear of eternal punishment; or to put it in more simple terms:
brainwashing; or to say what it really is: child abuse.

You have no idea the torment you are heaping upon your own head.

"Suppose it’s all true, and you walk up to the pearly gates, and are
confronted by God," Bryne asked on his show The Meaning of Life. "What
will Stephen Fry say to him, her, or it?"
"I’d say, bone cancer in children? What’s that about?" Fry replied.
"How dare you? How dare you create a world to which there is such misery
that is not our fault. It’s not right, it’s utterly, utterly evil."
"Why should I respect a capricious, mean-minded, stupid God who creates
a world that is so full of injustice and pain. That’s what I would say."

ability. What sin does is blind us to the cause of that wrongness.
Sin's effect on us makes us able to believe God is the cause of wrongness,
when the truth is there's a real enemy at work actively deceiving people
into believing false things as though they were truth. He does this non-
stop, continually, even right now there in the room where you are. He
attempts the same with all people continually.
-----
If you want to know the truth, Leigh, the information is before you.
Learn about who Jesus is, why we need Him, and what He has planned
for man in the future:
The New Testament begins here:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+1&version=KJV
The future for sinners ... cast into the lake of fire never to return:
Verse 15:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+20&version=KJV
For those who are saved ... with God forever, in His Kingdom paradise:
Verse 7:
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Revelation+21&version=KJV
It all comes down to what you did with Jesus and His free offer of
salvation. Reject it and you remain condemned (John 3:18). Receive
it, and you pass from death to eternal life and will not be judged
(John 5:24, 6:47, 11:25).

My questions were rhetorical as I already know the truth: no evidence
that a hell exists, your god doesn't exist and souls don't exist.

The details of why you believe as you do are in the "tldr" parts
you ignore.
If you ever seek the truth, and stop clinging on only to what you

time, you will remain where you are, never learning the truth, until
you die ... and then you will know the truth, but it will be too late

lies. The "experience" that resulted in you becoming born again could
have been fixed, like most mental illness, with medication and therapy.

to what awaits those who reject truth, and embrace falseness.
The same God who created the universe and all of its wonders keeps His
House clean and pure. No sin will ever abide in His Kingdom. It's
why we need Jesus Christ. He takes our sin away.
