I don't consider Atheism a religion because they don't believe in a God(s).
I know this isn't what religion is ALL about but it's a majority of what it is, seeing as religious people will do certain things only because of their God(s).
Also, a lot of people, who don't understand what Atheism is will say that they are Atheist, just because they do not have a religion, Even if they believe you go to heaven when you die. So a lot of "Atheists" aren't actually Atheists. Most likely a large population of Atheists don't really understand what it is.
I'll eat when I am hungry
I'll drink when I am dry,
Get drunk whenever I'm ready, get sober by and by.
And if this river don't drown me,
it's down I'll mean to roam,
For I'm a river driver and I'm far away from home.
