Why would you want to be more or better than other people (except in sports or arts)? You even use a religious verb to describe that situation: to 'dominate' = to be the Lord...
So if you consider yourself an atheist you will need to rethink this whole 'domination' thing, Slappy!
Enough of this! To "dominate" means to "win", which in this case means "become the majority". There's nothing wrong with that.
Also, who are you to say that an atheist can't want to rule over people? That has nothing to do with the definition of "atheist".
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."
