Amen RA posted a diary earlier today asking if Atheists are the new Gay. I'm sure many people took issue with this idea, and deservedly so. Comparing the situation faced by Atheists in America to the situation faced by homosexuals is... inapt, at best. But the diarist's fundamental point is worth considering. Is our nation becoming increasingly intolerant to people who hold unorthodox religious views?
I think so. But I also think Amen RA has the whole issue backwards.
