Why do so many who identify as Atheists support Big Government?

[WHAMPOM]

I'm kind of curious to this. I am not religious at all, I don't identify with Atheism or Atheists due to my believing it is just another religion. Though I was thinking. Why do they want to substitute so hard the "fake" God for one of their own creation? Some giant entity that is all powerful and will take care of everything, yet will be constructed of man? Please... Silly mortals.

Can you see how your belief that Atheism is a religion is your religion? Which makes your first statement a lie. And the second. And the third one too.

If atheism is a religion then bald is a hair color.

Seems to me that "BIG" government during thre last forty years has increased more when the religious, conservative, republicans are in office?

They, Atheists do? Can you provide links to back up this statement?

The 'small government' or 'conservative' groups by no means have a monopoly on Christianity. You are trying to compare apples/oranges here. There are plenty of 'small-government' atheists, too.
