I'm seeing a very disproportionate picture being painted.
I've lived all my life in the DC area which is one of the most liberal, secular, religiously diverse areas in the nation. Being an atheist is fine there, we blend in with the rest. Same deal with everything north of DC into the Northeast, also a friendly place for atheists. Same deal out on the West Coast states. Rest of the country is hit or miss, with more secularism encountered in urban areas and religion parading around in the rural backwaters. Deep, deep South is boners-for-jesus land.
And college campuses are fucking havens for atheists.
I think that covers it generally speaking.
