7. I may be at one of the extreme ends of the religious spectrum,
but, as an atheists, I resent being lumped in with fundamentalists. The fundamentalist want to turn the government into a theocracy. I have no desire to turn the government into an atheocracy. I want the government to leave religion or the lack of it, up to the people.
If I were an atheist fundamentalist I would want the schools to tell children that there is no evidense that their god exists. I would want a pledge that said "one nation without any gods". I would want the phrase "in science we trust" on our money. I would want to put up displays touting the non-existance of any gods on government property.
