There is no reason to only be about the faction of "no."
Why can't we be about something? Well of course we all could be, but only by coincidence and not due to our Atheism. Any other ideologies, ideas or goals we share are purely coincidental and are surplus to being Atheist. It would be impossible to unite under "the banner" of Atheism for anything else other than sharing a stand point when it comes to a belief in a god... because that's all it is.
