This I think is particularly an American and/or third world country thing as I could parade around Britain with my Atheist t-shirts on (which indeed I do) and no-one would take any notice and quite frankly, the idea that I could loose friends or not be able to get a job just because I was atheist seems bizarre in the extreme!
I had to strongly disagree with a lot of it because it was trying to obtain feelings of oppression of atheists and in the uk there is none that i have ever encountered or heard of.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
