Probably the worst case of religious persecution I have personal knowledge of involves a friend who was raised as a Jehovah's Witness but left the fold as soon as she was able to act for herself.

25 years later, her employer hired a new store manager, who was a practicing Jehovah's Witness. Someone told him that she was once one. Lapsed members are supposed to be shunned by active members and he made her life a living hell for three or four months before she finally had enough and threatened to sue the company for discrimination. It was not a pretty picture and I understand that there are even worse horror stories about that weird religious organization.
