Laws that protect freedom of belief. I personally believe, and is more or less scientifically and legally understood to that Athiesm is a belief just like every other religion so a law forcing you to be atheist would be no different then a law forcing you to be Christian. Unless the first amendment evaporates, it won't happen.

In response to OP, Atheism causes conflict too, Agnoticism is the only true neutral, and tolerance is the only way differing opinions can be reconciled. A law that bans religion will cause even more problems.


I disagree. Some 'athiest' people are fanatics just like religious fanatics. But for true athiests it is just a lack of belief not a belief itself.

Semanitc rubbish. To be a true atheist you have to have thought about the concept of god and religion and come to a conclusion that God doesn't exist and that religion is all made up. This perspective is based on assumptions and beliefs when it comes down to it. for instance the belief that things can only be true if there is a way to measure or observe it with the senses or with scientific instrumentation, i.e. nothing exists outside of what is physically observable.

The true atheist is someone who has done a lot of deep thinking about the reality of things. The casual atheist is the one who simplistically thinks it is a case of not believing.
