I understand the desire for atheists to get together, but calling it a church is dumb. It reinforces the erroneous belief by religious people that atheism is a religion too, and church refers specifically to a Christian assembly place (or a place for fried chicken)..

I agree. And what's really stupid is one of the benefits of being an atheist is not having to get up early on Sundays to attend church. Not that all believing folks do so. And it doesn't escape irony that this atheist church phenomena was started by two comedians.
And you're right that there's already criticism that atheism is a religion in disguise.

I also agree. I think it's dumb to refer to it as a church.
