Not that there's supposed to be a competition but atheists get away with far more than people of faith when it comes to professing their beliefs.

I see your point, I have not any experience as I am not religeous per se nor witness of this, must've been on other threads before this one.
If however as has been mentioned atheists have a harder time because of the lack of any belief system except lack of belief then you could possibly find comform in a moral high ground?
If not then why not simply trade it all for a knowing smile, a wink, benelovence, faith, belief etc. for they are in your eyes wrong, you have god, you will in the end return to god. You have nothing to fear.... What does an atheist have? You'll have eternal glory, what is that compare to 70 or so years of life in this mortal coil?
Surely that is worth more than anything anyone can throw at you?
