Well, "something happen" is kind of vague. I suppose they got yelled at a few times. 

Karl Marx, for example, died in 1883. He was openly atheist. Nietzsche died in 1900, and Freud in 1939. Russell's Why I am Not a Christian was published in 1927. A.J. Ayers Language Truth and Logic -- in which he declared all religious statements to be nonsense -- was published in 1936.

These were open atheists who had a great deal of influence. Long before the end of the 1900s.
