Maybe in Texas, but out here in California people love to mix new age bullshit with old age religious bullshit. A type of intellectual flubber I would call it, the believers mind takes many shapes.
Like any philosophy, just like all Christians are not created equal, neither are all atheists created equal. Anyone has the liberty to sprinkle superstition anywhere they like. For example, I love the idea of karma, though I will never believe in the validity of it, I will sometimes fallaciously use it in conversation.
It's like some atheists believe in big foot or don't believe in evolution or climate change. "People are people, so what should it be?" so goes the famous song.
