If someone published a fictional novel that was about a utopian atheist society recovering from a period of religious dictatorship, would you protest this book?

Well you're right . It would have to be fiction because there has never been an Utopian atheist society. Never. to answer your question , no I would not protest the books publication. it's never a good idea to suppress freedom of speech.

It probably wouldn't even phase me. I know what I believe. Plus, it's just a book. There's no need to protest because I wouldn't agree or read it.

I wouldn't protest it. Probably wouldn't read it either. Oprah might book it on her Book Club list though.

Not at all. God is the one who would give freedom to the author to write about that, so I ´m not going to be the judge for that action

No, because in the land where I live, we have free speech laws. Anyone can say anything blasphemous, It is not my place (according to what I read in the Bible) to judge.

Go ahead and publish it. What's stopping you? Every one is entitled to make a fool of himself!
