You and Kyle are both over reacting in a big way.
Gregg's post read, "We of every Nation, Race, and Religion --
Christian, Jew, Muslim, Buddhist, and heathen". This is in no way a
negative reflection on atheism (or "alternative" beliefs). It is
simply inclusion in the list of ideals that he gave. Perhaps you
would do better to complain if he had excluded you from his list?
Your knee-jerk reaction to the mere presence of the word makes me
wonder if you are truly comfortable with your beliefs.

list:
