JC, I am 100% sure that religion is all false, that there is not now, nor has there ever been a god.

Atheism is itself a religious belief (a belief about God or about things related to religion) that is no more supported by logic then religion is. Either belief in God or belief that there is no God requires faith. Agnosticism requires no faith, but since you are 100% sure that religion is all false and there has never been a god then you are not an agnostic.

Many tell those that believe in them that they will go to heaven or hell, depending on how much $$ they give the priests.

Very few people priests or not say anything like that.

Also even if there is no god that doesn't mean that all religions are con games. A con game would imply not only that the belief was false but that those pushing it know it is false. I think that for the most part this is not true.
