I think this country would be better off with an Atheist in the White House. There would be defiantly a seperation of church and state. People would be treated better by laws,etc. during this time. What else so you think could be accomplished if this happened?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Knowing how the religious fanatics feel probably lots of violence. An atheist would allow abortion (as they should), LBGTQ rights (ditto), maybe taxing as non-profits that don't play by the rules (ditto, ditto) and lots of other non-racist and egalitarian programs and the 'moralists' would be very upset and willing to fight. Look how upset they got wen Obama mentioned non-believers in his inaugural speech!! Black and mentioning atheist rights was too much to bear. He got moore hate mail and threats than any other president.

@Gwendolyn2018 It is mostly the religious that oppose these policies. Very few, non-religious are against abortion and discrimination. Besides the hypocritical Libertarians how many non-religious are against abortion, discrimination and the church's getting away with robbery are there???
@Gwendolyn2018 Simply going by the posting. Not making any assumptions just personal ruminations. Talk about cog and then mention the lopsided-cog-in-chief speaks to the power of "one person."
I would agree that we could be much better off if the person were an atheist, but not necessarily an anti-theist. I believe in comp0lete separation of church and state, but also freedom of religion if -- and only if-- it includes freedom from religion. Do not necessarily assume that all atheists would be truly interested in treating all people with full dignity and respect in advancing the human condition, in democracy. I would want belief in those things, as well.

United States of America IS the secret religion of the Masonic lodge secret religion racist devil worshippers since their freedom from England July 4th, 1776..
If an atheist in office would mean that the secret religion - government laws of the American code, constitution and state governments - were to be brought to true justice and properly abolished and these lands being called Americas were fully restored to those that had been here for 1000s of years prior to the European invasion of 1492 then we might enjoy such but not limited to: free brick homes built by true masons, free education to the fullness of all knowledge, understanding, wisdom, skills, crafts, trades and college certifications of any kind and freedom for everyone from capitalism wage slave labor.

Can anyone give actual evidence of an openly atheist elected national person ?
What makes you/anyone think the first one will/could-be president ?
Color me skeptical

A national election might provide a broader acceptance of what is still viewed as a large minority. Mayor Pete is an example (however gay vs atheist)
