Well, the author is an atheist, and he is one by choice, having been brought up as some sort of Catholic. Can't expect him to give up his little hobby-horses! The important thing is that he has nailed what is really happening and called it by its name. The process is very advanced in Britain, and freedom of religion is really on the edge of being legislated out of existence; and even in Italy there have been some horrible sentences from high courts that seriously impair free speech. Constitutional rights are now trumped by the imagined right not to be offended, and that is something that you should beware of, because it seems to be the mood in the USA as well.
