Mindy,
About that story from the economist on being an atheist in a Muslim country.
I found something by an former Muslim turned atheist, who disagrees with it. He goes by the name As’ad AbuKhalil, and he claims to have lived in a Muslim country, while he was an atheist. Lebanon to be precise which according to the CIA world fact book has a small Muslim majority.
