Brian Fahling, senior trial attorney for the American Family Association Center for Law & Policy, called the court's ruling "a sort of Alice in Wonderland jurisprudence." "Up is down, and atheism, the antithesis of religion, is religion," said Fahling.

Atheism is a purely faith-based belief about the nature and existence of a supreme being, and as such qualifies as a religion. I have made this point many times on FR.

Would nihilism also qualify as a religion?
