The 10 Hour Challenge!

Or an example in general? Not quite sure what you have in mind there, and why there's separation in your interest to promote atheist values.

I'm just not aware of any atheist values. Atheism begins and ends with my failure to makes sense of what a god-thing might be. Dismissing one screwy idea has not been foundational for me.

I'm interested in our elected representatives of whatever religious sect agreeing to argue for the public good in purely secular terms. They should not be legislating for any position because the bible calls for it. It may be possible to persuade them that such a move is in their best interest since most of them won't want to have their laws based on the bhagavad gita, torah or secular schema. So lets just agree that all arguments be made based on explicit expected results without appeals to religious authorities.
