Thanks for the answers. The reason I asked is if atheism were a religion, then why doesn’t separation of church and state apply? Hasn’t atheism created its own church that began with a scientific theory instead of a god? Especially when you consider that church as it was originally used in the Bible referred to a group of believers rather than a fixed building or location.

Hello @Faithdefender there are many types of atheists, and some of them can be classified as a type of religion. Science textbooks are not supposed to promote atheism regardless, but to remain neutral on the question of God.
