If Darwin is like a god to atheists, we have an odd way of showing it. Modern day evolutionary theory uses Darwinian natural selection as one of the mechanisms by which evolution can occur, but it's one of many. We've also rejected portions of Darwin's book as false and supplanted more accurate views of the world instead.
There are also atheists who completely reject evolution. One example is the Raelians, who basically take UFO sightings to an illogical extreme and proclaim that aliens are responsible for everything practically.
As for atheism being a religion, that is completely false. Religion's believe in a higher power; atheism is the rejection of this. Religions generally hold certain truths to be sacred and unquestionable; atheism has no doctrine, dogma, or tenets.
Atheism is the rejection of religious ideas. You say there's a god, and we say "nuh uh". That's it. That is all atheism is, nothing more.
Is Atheism becoming a 'relgion' in it's self.
