You think spending time on an atheist forum and discussing relevant matters, constitutes as 'consuming a large portion of our lives'? I spend more time thinking about the next game of thrones season than I do to religion. Thats something religious people will never understand about atheists, how small a part of their lives religion is.
Being an atheist doesn't neccessarily mean that you are against religion but i'm pretty sure most of us are. We are very justified in not letting religion take over our lives. What i'm refering to when I say this, is laws legislated for religions that impede on other peoples rights. So in answer to your question: no.
P.S. Code of our lives? Have you ever met an atheist?

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech
