Why is the persecution of atheists in the USA allowed to go unnoticed?
We are constantly told about the Holocaust in schools, we know about Emperor Nero who persecuted Christians in the Roman Empire, we know about the USSR and other Communist states where religion was persecuted.

Yet nothing on the hatred and persecution of atheists; atheists are the most hated, persecuted group in history.

Here in the UK atheists are the majority; we have all the rights and the biggest voice; believers are not allowed to have a voice; many organizations can ban believers from joining (the other way around is banned), Jewish schools have been shut down for not allowing atheists to attend and Catholics are not allowed to become members of the Royal Family. The UK is firecly anti-Christian, last week a church was burned down in the name of Paganism.

In the USA many people wouldn't vote for an atheist and many people would be upset if their child married an atheist; I have heard that many Americans want the death penalty and segregation for atheists and some Americans believe that the world would be better if Hitler killed atheists and I have read about an atheist family driven out of their home :( that is disgusting and hateful. Richard Dawkins says he is fed up and disgusted with the hate and persecution atheists get in the USA; he plans to do something about it.

What can be done?

Answer:
Do you feel persecuted unless you have the power to persecuted others. You feel that denying Jews and Christians the right to teach their children their value system is something to be proud of and something that promotes freedom?

Atheists have murdered more people than all other groups combined. Mao killed 30 million, Stalin killed 22 million, Hitler killed 16 million (atheist not Lutheran) and the Kmher Rouge killed 2 million in a tiny country one quarter the size of Texas. So your people have quite a track record of destruction and have no real claim to a sense of victimhood, quite the reverse.

So your only real claim of grievance is that the atheists have been restrained in their ability to discriminate and murder Jews and Christians.
