I am not religious, in fact I am anti organized religion. Personally, I believe most religions are used to brainwash, misguide, and control people. However, only an ignorant and uneducated person would claim that there is no God, higher being, aliens and/or anything of the sort. Science cannot prove there isn't a supreme being and people of faith can't prove that there is.

I agree that there are a lot of severely misinformed, naive people in the US and all over the world, but the same can be said about atheists or the human race in general.
I would hardly put atheists in the 'ignorant' group. Not believing in something because there is absolutely no evidence of it is not analagous to believing in something because there is no evidence for it, but you feel it to be true.
