Scientology is a pseudo-religious construct founded by science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard.
Atheists have reached a conclusion about god that indicates that there is no god, This is not "rejecting" god any more than children reject the monster under he bed as they grow older - they just realize that there is no such thing.
Deism is the belief in a god (or, gods) that abandoned our civilization or basically doesn't intervene; Atheism is a rejection or disbelief in the idea of gods, goddesses, demigods and devils.
Nontheism the rejection of the belief in god or gods, atheism is the absence of belief in god or gods; you might argue that there is no difference and the terms are often used interchangeably, however there is a difference:
For example, most governments in the west are nontheist; they run their country and establish laws in a secular, rational way - although members of the government may well be theist.
There is a big difference between non religious person and atheist. I am taking it, when you say non religious person they neither believe or disbelieve. Because this sort of person falls into the category known as an Agnostic. This person has not really decided on whether they believe or don't, so they sort of sit on the fence. They don't believe in any particular faith but at the same time the don't deny that any faith couldn't be real.
However, an Atheist is a self confessed believer that no God exists and will tell people that they believe that. An atheist has no interest in trying to be taught about a god because they are certain non exists.

Atheism and Religion
Religion is generally understood to be a set of attitudes, beliefs, and practices pertaining to a belief in a supernatural power (gods) that controls human destiny, i.e., a belief in a deity. Apart from the general understanding of religion it should be noted that a few sects, such as Buddhism and Jainism, do not advocate a core belief in gods. An essential component of god-based religion is an unquestioning acceptance that certain things are true in the absence of scientific proof or evidence.
Atheism is simply the absence of belief in gods.
Additional Input from Contributors:
Religion is based on faith, which is belief in something for which there is no proof - most commonly a God or gods. In contrast, atheism is the lack of belief in these things for which there is no proof.
Theism is believing in God, atheism is not believing in God. Those who are atheists normally belong to some religion, some organized method of prayer, but those who are atheists question even the existence of God. They don't believe that this world is created by a power, that there is a God. They believe in scientific theories of evolution or the Big Bang. Therefore they do not realize God. They are not blessed to live with love and peace and joy, because of their belief of atheism. There are still others who are not atheists, they don't blindly reject God, they are agnostics, they question whether God exists. They don't believe in organized theism or religion but they accept that there is a power in this universe but not the God that religions call God.
Religion expresses a belief in a god or gods, and other supernatural phenomena such as miracles, angels, and devils/ demons. Atheism simply means that we disbelieve in gods, etc.
god is a general term, while each religion has there own version of god.
Theism is a belief in god, atheism is a disbelief in god.

The difference is, it's easier to leave the Vatican than to leave scientology.
"Is Scientology based on atheism?" No, Scientology is a fraudulent religion created by a mediocre author on a dare. L. Ron Hubbard's religion has elements of the supernatural in it. Atheists do not believe in Scientology. Scientology is in general an insane mockery of all religions and scientific concepts.

There are, as of 19 September 2015, no Scientology churches in Egypt. The closest ones would be in Israel. Egypt has a very limited freedom of religion, which really only applies to Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Some religions like Baha'i and Atheism (which would be a religious designation) are barely protected by the state. It is doubtful if Scientology would be permitted in Egypt in the near future.
Atheism for one Scientology doesnt mention gods publicly Unitarianism universalism, stoicism and Confucianism all address well being and god isn't brought into the picture
Proponents of agnostic atheism do not believe in any particular deity because they feel it is impossible to know whether such beings exist. Nihilists feel that there is no point to life. These are completely different world views.
Atheism is the lack of belief in a god or gods, while agnosticism is the belief that the existence of a god or gods is unknown or unknowable. Atheists assert that there is no evidence for the existence of a deity, whereas agnostics question whether such evidence could ever be found.
Scientology is Fake.
