Because being Atheist is a belief, not a religion.

For the same reason there's no History History Month.

There may be in the future. But atheists, while reviled, usually pass without any questions asked in polite society. Black people are discriminated against by the privileged classes every day.
However, Darwin Day is February 12, and many Atheists are looking forward to marking that holiday with get-togethers or lectures. Coinciding with the National Day of Prayer, Atheists are celebrating the National Day of Reason.
Which month would you want to note as Atheist month? I'm partial to October, myself.

Because atheists are still being persecuted and the far left hasn't picked up on it yet. There's going to be a homosexual history month way before there's an atheist history month.

Why don't you tell us the history of atheists? Does it really require an entire month?

How do you know there isn't one? Maybe they just didn't tell anyone because they don't feel like having religious kooks bother them more during their one month of celebrations.
Oh, and probably because the goverment wouldn't allow that. They only have race history months to throw other races a bone to be politically correct and to sweep any racial injustices under the rug.

I wasn't aware that there was a Christian history month, a Muslim History month, a Hindu History month, a Buddhist history month, or Hare Kirshna, or Mormon, or Jewish....so why would we have an Athiest one?

Cause atheists gave their history month to church people, cause church people are history, or their religion is history or something like that, I forget.

As an atheist, I say that would be stupid.....I would call it: Be yourself Day
