If a religion said we had to sacrifice a fresh virgin to the volcano every saturday - you're unlikely to object when the government mentions that would be murder and bans the expression of their religion.
Meanwhile, atheism, as you've had plenty of opportunities to tell people yourself, isn't a religion - so even if religious expression could be banned (and it can and it often is) that still wouldn't impact or be related to atheism.
Theocracy is banned, as an example, in the us - even though it's very much an expression of a major us religion.
You're missing the point, which is that the freedom of conscience overlays both freedom of religion and freedom from religion -- your suspicions aside. I think repression solely on the basis of religion or its lack is wrong, and don't really appreciate you trying to tell me what my opinion is.
That shit is both rude, and revealing of your own incomprehension of my point.
