As I was browsing the net I came across this statement, "Atheism - Is this a philosophical belief or an actual religion?" - that i agree with it being a religion for the great majority of people.
And then this quote by Nietzsche came to mind "I do not by any means know atheism as a result; even less as an event: It is a matter of course with me, from instinct." - Ecce homo I was just interested in other peoples take on this situation

I think it could be both.
As a philosophical belief, it represents the person's intellectual view of the world. As a religious belief, it could represent the person's morality, sense of self, views on death, and celebration-of-life rituals.

Atheism is not a religion. It's a lack of belief in god/gods.

Atheism is not a religion. Nor is it a philosophy. Both, however, may incorporate atheism. I see no purpose in expanding a mental state regarding the existence of a specific object into more than what it means.
