Your post is very illuminating, Sister Mary!
The way I see it, and which logic would dictate, is that there are two religions in this world, and everyone follows one or the other.
Religion 1: True Christianity
This religion focuses on worshiping God and studying His Word, following the path laid out in His Word to Salvation™. Members of this religion are the tiny minority and are the only to have favor in the eyes of God Almighty and will spend eternity in bliss, praising God forever.
Religion 2: Everyone Else
This religion focuses on hating God, ignoring His Word, and following Satan to hell. Members of this religion are the vast majority, and are known by many names: Catholics, Satanists, Hindus, Atheists, Muslims, non-Baptist Protestants, Buddhists, etc. These lost souls are an abomination unto God and will spend eternity in agony, forever separated from God.
So, I agree wholeheartedly that Atheism is a religion, a belief system based on shunning God's Truths, and as such it is unconstitutional for it to be endorsed by our government in the ways you have pointed out.
It is yet another persecution we as the Godly minority must endure, as we have throughout history.
But, when we are in heaven, pointing and laughing forever at all those who persecuted us here for a finite time, we will have triumphed.
It is disheartening though in the meantime to have our hard-earned tax dollars being spent on subsidizing Satan's agenda.
I Kings 7:23
And he made a moulten Sea, ten cubites from the one brim to the other: it was round all about, & his height was fiue cubits: and a line of thirtie cubites did compasse it round about.

Then do as directed by our esteemed Pastors and head on over to the
Introductions subforum and make your first post there, friend. Tell us what church you go to and what your favorite Bible verse is and how you came to find Jesus. Anything else you want to share with us about how Jesus has blessed you is welcomed too.
Are you a hater of God that believes He is a morally bankrupt monster? Read
Why, you ask, is God so angry? to see that it is in fact you that is the monster that mercilessly and infinitely torments God.
Stop this relentless torturing of God and accept Jesus today!
