On the balance, would you rather live in a country that -- while guaranteeing freedom of religion -- required all office holders to be atheist? Why or why not?

I wouldn't. Freedom from religious bias has shown, and continues to show itself as not the real source of inhumane, injust, and even irrational policies. From non-consensual medical testing to lobotomizing women for "hysteria", history has a lot of examples showing that science can be falsified into an excuse for oppression as much as any other ideology.
