For Those Who Consider Atheism a Religion, Would You Think That Atheists Should Be Allowed “Faith Based Funds”

Question by Queen of Yack, Jeff’s Queen!: For those who consider atheism a religion, would you think that atheists should be allowed “Faith Based Funds”
I have seen it many times posted here that “atheism is a religion”.
Also noteworthy to the question is the fact that the Supreme Court has, in the past, regarded atheism as a religion “for purposes on the first amendment”
So I was just wondering should atheist, if they so decided to form a collective, be entitled to the same rights given to religious organizations, specifically “Faith Based Intitiatives”?
Not sure if links are working but here is a link to a 2005 court ruling regarding atheism as a religion.

More than 14000 American teens died by violent means the same year. Tennessee ranks 34th nationally in the number of violent teen deaths, with only sixteen states reporting a higher teen violent death rate. This was the information issued recently by the Tennessee Commission on Children and Youth in the “Kids Count Dissemination Advisory Committee Report.” The Committee reported that Tennessee’s violent death rate was 75 deaths per 100000 teens in the population. The highest number of violent deaths occurred in urban counties, but the highest rate occurred in Lewis County, one of Tennessee’s rural counties.
