When the bigfootists organize on a large scale and start using that to pass laws based on their unsubstantiated claims and telling me that I can't be a decent person or that I deserve to be killed and tortured forever for my lack of belief then I will be happy to join an abigfootist forum. I identify as an atheist only in response to the problem that is theism. Bigfootism isn't a problem.
Last I looked, America had something called the 1st amendment which states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion".
That has nothing to do with what I said. It's notable that you have no actual response and just tried to change the subject.

Why do you assume atheists (not capitalized by the way) don't have a problem with it? I do, although I'd take the mainly ceremonial forms of religion over the pernicious form I have to deal with in the US.
