atheism cannot be considered a religion becuase here are some definitions:
atheism: 2 a : a disbelief in the existence of deity b : the doctrine that there is no deity
religion: b (1) : the service and worship of god or the supernatural (2) : commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance
When you're an atheist you have no God, no Buddha, nothing. They cannot be considered a religion or be credited as one if they do not have such a deity to follow, or a set doctorine to follow.
