  • The word Atheism comes from the Greek meaning "without god," and atheism is a disbelief in or denial of the existence of God (or gods), so it wouldn't be a religion.
  • An atheist believes that God does not exist, which cannot be proven. This would seem to make atheism a matter of faith, but not a religion.
  • If not playing Baseball is a sport, then atheism (not believing in a god) is a religion.
A.It depends what you mean by religion. Websters dictionary does define religion recognition of God. Atheism is not a religion, but is a belief and a leap of faith. So, if you mean religion as a belief practiced by faith, then yes.

No, absolutely not. Athiesm is the lack of belief, it is not the belief that there is nothing. Athiesm is exactly the opposite of belief and faith (faith meaning 'the belief in something without any evidence').

If there is a large number of people in a community who do not believe in any supernatural forces or deities and go about their lives, and then suddenly a number of those people suddenly start believing in them, the remaining number of people are no different than before. They are not classed as having a religion against the belief in supernatural forces and deities simply because another group exists that does believe in them.
