You didn't really reply to my comment as much as to something I never said. I didn't claim that my friends were cancelling me (I don't tend to be friends with jerks), and I also don't think that we are at "you may not criticise the church"[0] levels of heresy being cried right now. It's the tendency I find worry ing.

[0]: obligatory disclaimer that the Galileo incident was at least as much about him deliberately pissing off the Church as about his scientific beliefs, which if I understand correctly you were allowed to express if you tried to be at least a bit subtle about them.
