Related: About this forumBenjamin Corey, Progressive Christian Blogger, Asks Me 4 Questions on Islam......
From the article:
Benjamin Corey and I have agreed to ask each other questions related to our respective faiths, and specifically the common views on Islam, Christmas, Jesus and Mary. We hope this will help promote cross channel understanding, and promote Christian-Muslim dialogue. Ben is the managing editor, and a blogger on the Progressive Christian Patheos channel.

Aiieeee! Not atheism!!! Anything but that!
Wait, what's wrong with being an atheist, Ben Corey?

I could not find where Corey said that atheism was wrong.
Edited to add: Corey did use the word wrong, but not in reference to atheism. Perhaps you misread?

(49,533 posts)5. After reading my response,
I could not find where I claimed that he did.
So good job dispatching that straw man, as usual!
What he says is that he is concerned about Ham's Christianity leading people to atheism. As if it was a bad thing. But it's hard to see that from your position of religious privilege, probably.

(42,641 posts)6. Your last question supports my contention.
So you might wish to look again.
trotsky
(49,533 posts)7. I've looked at this more than you already. Here's a question for you to ponder.
Why is Ham pushing "our children" to atheism worth writing an article about, then, if atheism is A-OK?
