Why Do Atheists Care?

I am going to say amen to that, riley.
I also believe school is where children should learn. Prayer should be done at home or in church, not organized at school either (Jesus did state a person who prays in public is a fool).
I am also for Christian, atheist and other types of groups holding their meetings on campus for after school activities (they keep the building cool and lights on anyways). If they allow one, they have to allow the other. They also cannot discriminate against anyone wishing to join their groups (including gays) on campus.
I am for separation of Church and state also.

To me atheism is based on a flawed assumption, a leap of faith. It rejects the idea of a deity based on negative evidence - there is no evidence of God therefor God does not exist. Now a lot of people claiming to be atheists are really agnostics so there is some confusion there.

If your reason for not believing is lack of evidence then your logic is flawed.

For example, a man being accused of a crime he may or may not have committed. However, because there is no evidence to prove he either did or did not commit the crime, who is to say whether he is guilty or not?
