I was one of those people for a while. I was accepted, I think, because the particular group I hung out with had an overwhelming need to convert people, and couldn't resist a juicy atheist/agnostic specimen like me.
I also sing in a church choir, which is kind of similar except that it's explicit I'm there for the musical education and not the religion.
Ah, that's unfortunate.
As far as I can tell, the religious communities my atheist/agnostic church-going friends belong to consider them full-fledged members of the community no more in need of alteration than anybody else, which seems like a much more honest arrangement.
Though, of course, I have no way of knowing for sure.
