That part I don't know about because I have not read or heard anything about the politics there. The atheistic countries I was most familiar with were the Communist ones.
Norway has one of the highest GDPs per capita in the world, has a very well represented political system (6+ parties), and has the highest Human Development Index in the world. They have churches, and anyone can practice any religion they like.
There is absolutely no fear of the government at all.
