Not being able to put up a Christmas tree is persecution? Awwww, cupcake!
Yes, you no longer have the privilege of ignoring that everyone else doesn't care about your religion. You no longer have the privilege of forcing everyone else to celebrate your holidays.
That being said, I put up a Christmas tree in my house, and enjoy the holidays as a secular occasions. It's my house, I do what I want. You can do whatever you like in your house. But when it's shared space, you don't get to shit it up with your religious crap.

Big on privileged are we. You should feel so privileged to live in western nation traditionally identified with Christianity that puts up with minority atheist bullshit. You relish twisting a nations laws to allow room for your lack of belief even so far as demanding others not participate so as not to offend your sensibilities. Last time I checked people stopped forcing conversion at the end of a sword hundreds of years ago (westerners) so who exactly is forcing you to deal with all of this? Oh noez you heard a Christmas jingle. Oh noez you got to take off work for a holiday you dont believe in? Heavens no you mean strangers gave you gifts out of the kindness of their hearts? Take that pariah complex somewhere else. Atheist like other special interest groups don't actually want equality they want special privileges and to be seen as dominant.
