If it's ultimately considered illegal than we will have to violate the law. Just as the first Christians violated the law and became martyrs. Which comes back to the very beginning of this thread. Christians can be "good (insert country)", but only as long as that country doesn't violate the principles Christians are called upon to uphold. The government isn't the ultimate authority, and sometimes it is moral to violate a government law. I know you believe this, given how you seem to think government suppression of atheism is wrong.

I think you are making my point with this statement.

The point being what? That a Christian could have been a good German citizen in the Third Reich if they handed over the various minorities to slaughter at the hands of the Nazis? But since the government was evil and it was right to resist such a government then it therefore stands that the government isn't the highest authority one must be loyal to.

Are Christians called upon to be "good citizens" to their respective governments? Yes, obviously so. Should a Christian be a "good citizen" at the cost of being a Christian? Obviously not, as you have shown the same standard doesn't seem to apply when it's your beliefs on the line. History abounds with times where civil disobedience was the right course of action. The underground railroad, the hiding of German Jews, the nonviolent sit downs against segregation of African Americans, etc. etc. Apparently being a "good citizen" or "blindly loyal" doesn't mean all that much.
