Southern California is part of the southern regions of the United States as it is part of the American Southwest. Oh, wish I was in the land of grapes/ tomatoes/ lettuce Old times there are not forgotten. Look away, look away, look away..... Meh. Just doesn't have the same ring to it. 
To the OP: Are we not dressing to the standard? Deficient grooming perhaps. Maybe we just need the help of a better public relations firm.

I guess you don't pay much attention to the humanist movements in America then as this issue has mostly been stated by Caucasian atheists in America fearing a lack of connection with the minority groups. Some of us actually like to pay attention to how atheism is evolving in that nation.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House “Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom "If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech
You did not state on this thread your nationality or where you lived to my knowledge other than the fact you're not American.
Atheism+ is just something people do to talk about the issues, but don't do anything. Humanists actually take action.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
