Recently, White House officials held a meeting with the Secular Coalition for America who says this is "the first time in history a presidential administration has met for a policy briefing with the American nontheist community."

Apparently, the White House is taking heat for this meeting.

The Chairman of In God We Trust, Bishop Council Nedd said" "It is one thing for Administration to meet with groups of varying viewpoints, but it is quite another for a senior official to sit down with activists representing some of the most hate-filled, anti-religious groups in the nation."

First off, how can the Secular Coalition for America possibly be called one of the most hate-filled groups in the nation?

There are Christian Militia out there plotting to kill police officers just to lure more police officers to their demise at the first victim's funeral!
Westboro Church hosts their website at www.godhatesfags.com and the first thing you see when you open their homepage is a huge banner that says GOD HATES FAG ENABLERS.
What the..... !

And now, somehow.... a group whose sole purpose isn't violence or hate, but instead " promoting reason and science as the most reliable methods for understanding the universe and improving the human condition", is the one of the hate-filled groups in the nation?

Come on!

Why aren't non-theists allowed to lobby like the rest of the world?

They are allowed to lobby. Just like the non-secular side is allowed to spew whatever lies they want to further their agenda.

Religion has the capacity to blind zealots of reason. 9/11, the crusades, Westboro Church, and the Harutee are just a few examples of relgious ideals taken to the extremes.
