"Oh really; It fits very nicely into the second definition that you provided from Webster."

"a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices"

"RELIGIOUS"

1 : relating to or manifesting faithful devotion to an acknowledged ultimate reality or deity.

Atheism has no faithful devotion to any DEITY! And it has nothing whatsoever to do with what one believes otherwise!

As all religions believe in one or more supernatural "Gods", and as atheism is defined as:

"2 a : a disbelief in the existence of deity b : the doctrine that there is no deity"

..it is, thus, just utter inanity to claim that atheists are religious. JUST MORE PIFFLE!!

Please do yourself a favor and stop being contrary just for the sake of being contrary. It subtracts from anything valuable you might someday say...
