calling atheism a religion is like calling abstinence a love position
or not playing baseball a sport
or not smoking a habit
etc

Those are stupid examples. My point is, anyone you ask will have a set of beliefs. Not everyone plays sports. Not everyone has love. And a habit is something you do by action due to your brain becoming accustomed to repeating that action, usually without you thinking about it first.
Anyone who is old enough to think for themselves basically has a set of beliefs, whether those beliefs are morals or the idea of divine being(s).
By calling someone atheist, it is implied that they do not follow any religions, but in that, it can be considered its own religion.

Now, let's stop before we get into the war of the words.

Atheist, considering Buddhism

I'm atheist, but I think that some of the philosophical values of Buddhism are good. Actually, I consider it more like a philosophy than a religion.

Look up a definition of religion (you could use he one I gave you) and tell me how atheism fits any of those points

If you don't feel like reading all that, at least read this part:

Perhaps it would also help to examine what a religion is. The Encyclopedia of Philosophy, in its article on Religion, lists some characteristics of religions. The more markers that are present in a belief system, the more "religious like" it is. Because it allows for broader grey areas in the concept of religion, I prefer this over more simplistic definitions we can find in basic dictionaries. Read the list and see how atheism fares :

    Belief in supernatural beings (gods).
    A distinction between sacred and profane objects.
    Ritual acts focused on sacred objects.
    A moral code believed to be sanctioned by the gods.
    Characteristically religious feelings (awe, sense of mystery, sense of guilt, adoration), which tend to be aroused in the presence of sacred objects and during the practice of ritual, and which are connected in idea with the gods.
    Prayer and other forms of communication with gods.
    A world view, or a general picture of the world as a whole and the place of the individual therein. This picture contains some specification of an over-all purpose or point of the world and an indication of how the individual fits into it.
    A more or less total organization of one's life based on the world view.
    A social group bound together by the above.

To try and claim that atheism is a religion requires, it should be pretty obvious from the above, a radical ad hoc redefinition in what it is that "being a religion" is supposed to mean, resulting in a radically equivocal use of the new term-- if atheism is a religion, then just what isn't a religion?

... It is a religion it self or a belief

[Headcrab Zombie]

Seriously, st8ter, like every post you've made in this thread is your doing nothing more than quoting people with no reply, or replying with nothing more than "..." or getting mad

Atheism isn't a religion, it's the belief in not having a religion.
