I'm not sure what you are on about with the worship of Darwin thing.
If atheism is defined as disbelief in the existence of a deity, i.e. a belief that there isn't a god, then it will be a part of a person's world view or belief about the nature of the universe. It could be argued that that world view is a religion, and the atheism would then only be a part of that world view.
I think it would confuse the matter to call atheism a religion, especially since the world views of people who disbelieve the existence of a god can be very different.
Is Atheism becoming a 'relgion' in it's self.
