what i meant is that atheism is simply being referenced more often as the fortunes of the christian right disintegrate. so it---"atheism"---is a way for the christian right to talk about itself, really in the present context---since there is no atheist thing or organization--and despite the projections of some xtian-types, it is not a religion, not the mirror image of one, not the same at all---it is impossible to know about shifts in non-belief statistically....
