Monochrome walls and white lights. No dances, no celebration of freedom from superstitious ideas nor anything of the sort. I'd say that's a pretty uninspired way to do atheism.
The very essence of not fearing wrathful gods is freedom. Freedom to truly explore sex, nudity, sharing, polygamy, orgies, partying, humor and amusement, all manner of amazing stuff that most religious restrict, in order to get insecure obedient followers. If anything, I'd expect an atheist church to look more like Damanhur, or a nice BDSM swingers' club, not a boring conference room with no symbolism at all.
Wear some nice robes of your own design. Bask in the shared group beliefs and celebrate them. Print scriptures and bibles and qur'ans on scented paper and burn them as incense, celebrating the freedom from superstitious dogma.
IMO if there's no art involved, they're doing it wrong.

lighthouse09 said: I have tried almost every religion just to see what it's like and they all feel lacking in truth and unwilling to take a step forward.So i am trying to start an atheist church ;I'll try to teach being a good person even using other religious "stories" and reach out and help the community. I'm not looking for tax free stuff even I just want to end religion and make sure no one believes in sky ferries so we can interact on a real world basis and have one less reason to hate eachother as to unlock our full potential as humans. So how many would join and actually try to make An Atheist America ?
Sounds like AA for religious. If they need help getting off their religion fix they go to meetings. lol

santo daime sounds cool ill include some of that stuff to prob ly my favorite church was aliester Crowley's ordo templi orientis those people were cool as hell and had one of the weirdest coolest sermon like things I've ever seen. Church's are allowed to use many illegal drugs for ceremonial purposes so there could be some ayahuasca and rastafari are can smoke weed to so yea it could be a pretty cool place.
