Indeed we do. And I am openly atheist without fear. But it still isn't a popular position by any means.
There is one group of people I do not tell: my husband's family. He is deist and they would be very hurt by that let alone my atheism. I leave the choice of what to tell them to him because they are his.
I also am careful of what I say to people buying from me. I am an artist and in some ways people buy the artist not just the art. So I am quiet with customers, though if asked, I'd tell the truth.
But none of that compares in scale with being an atheist in a country where it is a crime. My heart goes out to you.
yeah I understand the social scenario and work hazards you are facing. This world is imperfect as they say. however one of the objectives of me joining this forum is to raise awareness that how hard it is to live with a reality that being an atheist is a major crime in many parts of the world.
Hail Apostasy!
