I noticed there wasn't a TST Lemmy community. The Satanic Temple is a modern satanic religion that aims to promote human rights and compassion. Check out their about page on their official website at https://thesatanictemple.com/pages/about-us. Note that this community is not an official affiliation. TST is also separate and not affiliated with the Church of Satan, who have a slightly different viewpoint of what satanism truly is. Dunno what to post in here, but maybe some will search for this and take part. Hello!

Which SCOTUS decision is that?

Atheism itself isn't a religion; it's just non-belief. You can have an atheistic religion, however.

There are some more too but I'd like to take a nap vs reading more case law. https://go.gale.com/ps/i.do?id=GALE%7CA140409171&v=2.1&it=r&linkaccess=abs&issn=0021969X&p=AONE&sw=w&userGroupName=anon%7E7a751ffa&aty=open-web-entry this one didn't make it to scotus it seems so maybe my memory is fuzzy. But the point is by forming a "religion" here is a hedge to gain those rights. TST in my opinion is a reactionary group, formed by atheist because of Christians overstepping.
