I don't live in the States, but I wonder if that is really the case. In the UK a large proportion of people are just not interested in religion, but they will still live by what might be called 'Christian values'.
Generalisations are usually wrong.

Well, i live in the States, and i can say that all but a handful of atheists were actually anti-christians.
I say this from a point of view of growing up christian, then hating christianity, then learning many other religions and philosophies.
And, what i notice when talking to so many atheists is that they didn't leave christianity for another philosophy, they are just anti-christianity. There are no beliefs there, just anti-beliefs.
So your also trying to say that those who claim to be Atheists from the Middle East (Islamic countries) are actually anti-Muslims or anti-Islam instead?

i do not know. i do not know those languages and so cannot see their conversations.
Atheists should really look into Buddhism. The Buddhist philosophies work just fine without a god. The practices do not care about your beliefs.
The only bad part of that is that in Buddhism, one of the goals is meeting God.
Not as in, i hope to, someday to... but in that these are paths to Godhood. (literally what Yoga means) And its really kinda hard to stay an atheist after you know God.
And i don't mean as in, "i know god exists because this book said so", i mean as in "Hi God, how's it going?" "ITS SUCH A PLEASURE TO FINALLY MEET WITH YOU"
Lol
