Well, I don't "believe" anything; I choose to THINK and REASON. I've always been a pariah to everyone except a few close friends. But I've never used force or fraud against anyone, so I'm OK with being an outcast. So yes, I would have no trouble standing up for my values even if it meant becoming (more of) a pariah.

If I was very passionate about it, yes. Depends on what it is though.
I'd like to say I would, but I can't say for sure since I've never been in that situation (to the extent of becoming exiled or a pariah, I mean)
All I can really say is I do tend to stand up for what I believe in, even if others shy away or don't agree with me or make fun of me for doing so, and I'd hope that I would stand up for what I believe in regarding that situation.

Yes. The 'public eye' is not always correct.

Many atheists do it every day.
