Interesting but not something I can really relate to. Outside of school (Catholic) and my late father, who died in the mid-80s, no one has given me a hard time about being an atheist. Outside of the odd t-shirt and my inverted cross, I don’t throw it in people’s faces and only get “angsty” when someone has a go and I can’t remember the last time that happened… even the flat Earther we met didn’t have a go about my lack of faith.
I think the UK (and Europe) is a lot more laid back than a lot of Americans in this respect.
