I find this absolutely crazy!
And I'm not talking about the church job, where I still play one Mass . . . there I would be fired instantly, that's a given.
I work in a library. But, my bosses and coworkers are all xtian - "inspirational" posters all over their offices, etc. (They use the word "spartan" to refer to my office. I only put up library-related stuff.) My immediate supervisor spends nearly all of her time at church, and frequently takes time off to attend to "god duties". These are seen as a sign of good character.
So yes, I believe that if I told them I'm an atheist, my supervisor would immediately start looking for something. I would get the shifts and assignments nobody wants. She's already the queen of nit-picking for errors and assigning blame - my performance reviews would take a nose dive. They would come up with a reason.
