The error is not atheism so much as allowing the 3rd person analytical frame to (a) establish itself as fundamental and (b) become a locked in unconscious presupposition. Once you live in a world where the ontological, the epistemological and the ethical have been (analytically) separated, much follows. Technological acceleration (after all, we get what we worship). The meaning crisis. The meta crisis. Atheism is the same thing as the COVID response. A desperate effort on the part of managerialism to place the Steward on the throne. It could never have “worked” for the same reason that astronomy cannot replace the actual experience of a sunrise.
