Well, no. There's a lot more to it.

No, Chris, there is not more inherent to atheism than the absence of theism. Nothing at all.

Jewel can attribute Stalin to atheism. And you can attribute your missing Noel sign to atheism. Certainly atheism is a factor. But neither act is attributable to atheism, in and of itself, cause and effect. Stalin was trying to consolidate power by destroying the competition. The lawsuits are trying to keep religionists from imposing their religion. Neither act is inherent to atheism, the philosophy.
