See my other comment, but it's true that more people are cautious about saying things about it. That's because the religion has so retarded the progress of societies it has infected that they are more likely to threaten violence against those who speak reason.
I don't really blame people for speaking more cautiously about it, but that's because of how much savagery the mind-virus demands of its followers.
//edit//And I say this as an atheist.
