I find that a little disgusting.
You seem to have a pattern of being disgusted by government and religion being separate. And I dare you to find a more stupid argument than 'a national organization should only be concerned about events that happen in the state its headquarters is in'. The FFRF has members all over the country, and responds to complaints from local people who have a beef with some religious intrusion on government.
I am quite sure like the ACLU and multi faith organization "Americans United" FFRF would take a believer's case if that believer felt another group were attempting to use government to set up a social pecking order.
FFRF is a majority atheists organization, but they do not have the goal of using government for force the end of religion by gunpoint. That is a bullshit stereotype both right and left believers hold far too widely.
To have freedom of religion you also have to have a government that protects your right to be free from the religions of others, that also means the right of one religion to be free from the religions of others.
