Atheists would be like the homeless people of today, they wouldn't be allowed full access to the utopian society.
and you think that's a good thing?
I don't believe in gods, if a theocracy was in power is still wouldn't, maybe if they made things difficult enough I might say I believed in their fairy story just to make my life easier, but the truth would be that I still wouldn't believe. So all a theocracy would do is force me to lie.
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!
