No, absolutely, positively not!  It's Apples & Oranges.  Someday, when theism is dead, what would you say to a theist who wanted to be a doctor, lawyer, teacher, juror, politician?  Probably what you would say to someone who interviewed with you for a job who said that they believed in fairies and unicorns!

That really doesn't add up, asshole. Your glee says more about you than the gist of this post, anyway.

Fuck you.

Nope I would say can you do the job. I would not care if they privately believed in fairies in fact I know people in professional capacity who believe in all manor of supernatural woo. If it doesn't get in the way of the job I simply don't care. Nor should it be a reason to deny someone a job.

That was my point.

Well, it's not. The highest numbers can be found in Scandinavia. And one shouldn't mistake the nons for actually being atheists. In my country there are 59 percent of nons, according to the Gallup religious index. Nons simply means not affiliated with any religion, not atheist.

*See bold 

Didn't say it had the highest.

And, you aren't telling me anything I haven't already alluded to about the nons.

FTFY.
