atheism is a religion too. It is faith in man or in one's self.

Oh that's deep. Only way you could be any more deep is to fart after you say that.

No atheism is not a religion. Religions all aim to connect man to the Gods or God. Look at the meaning of the word and the etymology.

atheism is a belief system, yes. But it is not a religeon. I think most 5 y.olds would understand that a religeon needs a supreme being (other than man himself)to be properly called one. Likewise many cults are organized like religeons but are still called cults.
