Default When Atheism Becomes a Religion

Atheism by definition is the disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods.

I recently heard an interview with outspoken atheist Penn Jellette of the comedy team Penn and Teller compare atheism as a religion to not collecting stamps being a hobby.

Recently atheism seems to have been bastardized into a religion whose sole purpose is rejecting all other religion, christianity in particular, using courts and their rulings as their weapon of choice.

That makes about as much sense, as those, including me, who don’t collect stamps creating a hobby whose sole activity is rejecting Philatelists.
