My girlfriend texting me about medical issues isn't "weird", but I still don't want my mom to read it if I happen to hand him my phone for a few minutes.
My mom emailing me photos of my childhood self taking a bath isn't weird, but I wouldn't want my friends to see them.
My friend asking me if I'll be showing up to the Atheist Association meetup isn't weird, but I wouldn't necessarily want my boss to see the message.

Wow. I'm glad I don't live in a country where that would even be an issue. It would never occur to me as something anyone would need to be private in any country(until now).
(Or do you work for a fundamentalist religious organisation?)
That was actually hypothetical - none of my current or past bosses would care. We did have a lot of religious clients at my old job, but they probably wouldn't care, either.
There are, however, places where it would definitely lead to a change in the work environment.

Being from the UK the whole idea of having an atheist organisation seems a little odd. Most people are technically christian but don't go to church and their beleif is fairly skin deep.
Religious apathy is sort of the default and religion doesn't really dictate public policy very much so having an atheist society would be a bit like having a society for heterosexual people.
Are atheists really marginalized enough in the US that it becomes necessary to band together?
