Nations ruled by atheistic governments / rulers haven't exactly given the world anything to desire! One thing about it, to truly have an atheistic worldview government / schools / courts mean there would be a small pool to draw leaders from!

By and large, I am happy with the way government, courts and education function now in Canada, with regard to secularism. Occasionally, something crops up that I find grossly disturbing, but Canada is light years ahead of our American counterparts, at least.
Perhaps I did not make myself clear – I do not care what people choose to believe, and whether they hold public office or teach my children, as long as their beliefs are private –*much like their sex life.
Hopefully, my position is better understood now.
