If religion is a mental virus, then doesn't it make sense for people to try to eradicate that virus - just like the smallpox or polio viruses?

I think schools should give children the skills to defend their minds against the religious virus. That might seem like a "war for atheism" (to theists). I don't know if this would be unconstitutional in the US or not. IMO, teaching atheism is not violating separation of church and state. (Of course the Soviets were more interested in controlling people than they were in freeing their minds from the religious virus.)
