Only how on earth such a thing could be brought about is completely beyond me. Any ideas?I'm sorry you feel this way, but in most cases the only common denominator we atheists share is that we don't believe in god or gods, that's it. We're not an organised religion or world-view, so we can't hold meetings for political and/or social motives for a lack of belief in something; therefore we have no use for churches, mosques, synagogues or temples.
If you want to socialise why not try taking up hobbies or other past times? One good example is volunteering because at least that way you would pick up new skills and it involves interacting with other people who may share your interests.
