    What is the state of secularism in your country.
    Do you sympathize with secular humanism?
    Are you tolerant of Atheists and Agnostics?
    Are you tolerant of other religious minorities?

    Do they believe the doctrines of the Christian faith?
    Or do they just profess to believe in it, but haven't even read the Bible?
    Are Greek people literate of Christianity? How important is Christianity to the Greek culture?

    That is great. I have made threads under Philosophy and Atheism. I talk about the difference between Agnosticism and Atheism.
    I cover some epistemology too. Logical Fallacies, Truth, Knowledge, and Justification.

    Why did you vote if you don't know?

    Greeks don't know the doctrines. Most haven't read the Bible and aren't "literate of Christianity".
    Greece is a secular country but the Church of Greece is a powerful institution, mostly for historical reasons.
    People who identify as atheist are a minority. Many who identify as atheist are in fact anticlericalist, anti-Christian retards, like elsewhere.
    Most are theists of some short and culturally Christian.

    I don't know, but I had a strong impression that Greeks were very Christian. I don't know that as fact. I was just guessing really. On the other hand, I don't associate Greeks with Eastern European Communism and secularism. So I wagered that Greeks are culturally Christian, and therefore if they rule over people their decisions will be influenced by Judeo-Christian norms and traditions. I am postulating this. This is just a hypothesis.

    Do you think most people in Greece would approve of my "atheist evangelism" against them.
    or would they perceive it as a threat to their faith?

    A state can be secular and Christian at the same time.
