The way separation of Church and State has been applied....forces Atheism to become the State religion......

That just doesn't jibe with my experience. If you want to continue to make that argument, you need to provide some supporting evidence. If you want to substitute agnosticism for atheism, I, for one, wouldn't challenge it. Atheism seems excessive to me.

Who is asking for the child to be split? Why it's the Atheists

And so does this. I don't see anyone asking for a child to be split, only that the child learn what is appropriate in various situations. You learn that you don't express yourself like a football fan when you're in a library or at a funeral. Or like a sexual being when you're on main street or in a doctor's office. Or like a wretch of a sinner when you're in a business meeting or a voting booth. We're not sliced in half when we make those adjustments to our environment, merely emphasizing the part of us that is relevant to the environment we're in.
