Atheism according to Atheists isn't a religion, so the law wouldn't apply to them. You really need to do your homework.

You are shooting yourself in the foot by not recognizing secular beliefs equally as religious beliefs.
(1) first of all, it would be discriminatory if "religious free exercise" only applied to organized religions.
that would give members of some groups more protections of their beliefs than other people based on affiliation.
that would be discrimination by creed or unequal protection
(2) but more importantly, TK, not recognizing secular and political beliefs as equally "religious"
allows a DOUBLE STANDARD -- this justifies imposing secular political beliefs by law,
while prohibiting only the beliefs of Christians and opposed religions from being recognized by law.
How can we ever stop the imposition of secular political beliefs
if these are not recognized equally as religious? That's where the discrimination by creed
is coming from -- the refusal to recognize secular beliefs as equally religious.
