Being from the UK the whole idea of having an atheist organisation seems a little odd. Most people are technically christian but don't go to church and their beleif is fairly skin deep.

Religious apathy is sort of the default and religion doesn't really dictate public policy very much so having an atheist society would be a bit like having a society for heterosexual people.

Are atheists really marginalized enough in the US that it becomes necessary to band together?

not sure why the downvotes here?

I didn't up- or down-vote, but probably because the conversation is rapidly heading off-topic.
