All religions have some sort of worshipping ritual, atheists do not worship. Worship is primitive. Religions involve belief in the supernatural, atheists reject all belief in the supernatural. Atheism is about reality, religions are about fantasy. Atheism is as much a religion as health is a disease.
Atheism is science Atheist philosophy is science philosophy.
Atheists know that everything that exists and happens in this universe is physics. Stars and planets, chemistry, biology, life and even human consciousness and behavior is all physics, so the only methodology capable of informing us as to the nature of reality is science. It is the only intelligent method of sorting out fact from fiction, truth from fallacy, reality from myth. Science keeps humanity out of the dark ages. It keeps us from paranoid panic every time there is a solar or lunar eclipse or a lightning strike.
