> but I would like to point out to you that Atheism is itself a religion: It's a belief in no god(s), a belief in refuting god(s).
This definition of atheism is non-standard, and dilutes the meaning of "religion".
Let it be noted that almost all atheists will disagree with you that it is a religion. Not all of them, of course, because atheism isn't an organized movement with a doctrine which states what is and isn't "true" atheism.
It's not a religion, though, by any reasonable definition of the term.
