The existence of religion in the public square is the subject of a pending court case, but nice strawman since we were discussing atheism and government.
No, it's really not, it's just one more attempt by the delusional to get their delusion taught as fact in the public sphere. Every single case where that's gone before the courts, the religious have lost, as well they should.
It wasn't a strawman though, the United States has a constitutionally-determined secular government. It doesn't matter what you believe, the government under which you live cannot recognize that belief officially, nor can it make laws based upon your belief.
That's a good thing.
