:: I don't dispute your basic point, but in fact atheists ''have'' abolished pagan names for weekdays - at least in the past. The atheistic and socialist French Revolution instituted a calendar in which there were 12 months of 30 days each, named largely after the Parisian weather, and in which each week had ten days simply named after numbers (primidi, duodi, tridi and so on). You are totally correct that modern atheists seem more intent on removing references to Christianity than references to more primitive religions, however.
