Not quite, we don't. Close, but not quite. Atheists work tirelessly to make it so, and to combat theists attempts to encroach on has been gained. We also work tirelessly to remove archaic, unnecessary theistic abdications of our government, such as the unnecessary reference to God in the Pledge of Allegiance, and the unnecessary reference to God on our currency. We want a truly secular government that makes no such concessions to religion. Do we want religion to be outlawed? Nope, bet we want it to have zero relevance in government. After all, that is what secular means - non-religious. Not, just a little religious, or kinda religious, but non-religious.We already have a secular government.Except that Atheists don't want "State Atheism". We want secular government. There is a difference. It was communists who wanted to impose state atheism, and that was due to their ideology, not their theology.Yes, we should probably skip over the two hundred million people they murdered in the 20th century. Maybe we should give state atheism another chance.Toxicity is a relative thing, mean spirited and hateful is one thing. But at least they aren't creating an imaginary conflict, targeting and murdering (beheading or burning alive) non atheist, let alone hijacking civilian airplanes loaded with civilians as missiles to attack non atheists. Where as TOXIC theists are doing such things, which makes religion seem more anti-human and nihilistic and well beyond "toxic".
