Strictly yes but as I said it has evolved into a religion through the medium of popular culture and overussage of the word by spotty teenage types searching for something or someone to be angry at.

I see it now as a set of beliefs one of which is the disbelief of an all powerfull deity.

And what of it not being a philosophy?! Of course its a philosophy.

Atheism is a philosophical view that is the position that either affirms the nonexistence of gods or rejects theism.
