Atheism isn't a religion.

Exactly. Atheism is simply the lack of belief in a deity; anything extra is just personalized spices.

Atheism is the belief that there are no deities. Atheists have a burden of proof of a negative. Only agnostics get the "not a belief system" card.

Fight me.

Agnostics are cowards

Agnosticism isn't a religion. Atheism is. You have to have faith to "know" something doesn't exist with certainty.

Mhhh well this is a difficult question. Atheists believe there is no God. So there is no point in religion. From a Atheists point of view atheism is not a religion. From a neutral pov you may argue the believe in no God is a religion of its own.
