Yeah, I agree on when personal choices affect everyone, to a point. Specifically there must be a legitimate external harm and it shouod be remedied in the least restrictive means. I say this specifically because of the restrictions on religious drug use, both against pagans and indigenous Americans in modern day as well as against Christians in the 1920s USA (catholic priests had to be given an exception to the prohibition of alcohol for the wine served in services).

I believe I should have the freedom to express and spread my beliefs unless I'm doing direct harm by doing so, religious or otherwise. And to restrict my ability to wear religious clothing or symbols is a restriction on my freedoms.

I too am annoyed by Christian atheists. And I've been an anti theist, as well as dating one and befriending plenty since converting to paganism, so I'm not like, going to be on the warpath against y'all, but it's not like I like that y'all look down on my beliefs, which have had a noticeably positive impact on my life. I'm still a firm believer in freedom from religion, even if I do add a bit of religious zeal to some of my beliefs that overlap with my religion (such as environmentalism).

And on a practical level if you want to kill religion as much as possible antitheism is a bad banner to rally under. What you want is secularism where everyone is exposed to the idea that science is what we have evidence for and everyone else is free to have their own beliefs at home. Religion is less sticky when people know folks of all sorts of them and when it's not something that people have any reason to feel persecuted for having.
