But, atheism is a view of religion - a non-diest view. Secular, proven concepts are one thing, theories are another. If something's not proven nor provable, I would think it should have no bearing on what we do in government by this standard. Therefore, economists, meterologists, evolutionists, etc., should not be allowed to teach their philosophies at government funded schools without equal time to each and every conflicting idea. Or, is that just dumb?

The Founding Fathers also recognized this. What you are doing is removing any possiblity of either Faith or NON-Faith, or influence of either, from the Government. Thats not removing Religion (as in the USSR), it just keeps the Government free from that (particular) corruption.

But, forcing concepts of no faith (which is what I said, not forcing no faith, but the concepts of no faith) on someone would be equally protected against, thus wrong to do, and influencing to governmental leaders.
