Atheism is a faith-based religion.

Regardless of how knowledgeable we are, we cannot possess exhaustive information on any topic in this physical world. There are indeed so much to learn, and it seems like, the more we amass knowledge, the more we realise how much we do not know.

When it comes to believing in God, this knowledge-gap is even more extensive than the physical world. Evidence-based knowledge can only reach a point after which a bridge is required to believe in the infinite God.

This bridge is called FAITH.

Atheists are faced with just as large a knowledge-gap as a believer.

When it comes to their worldview of the non-existence of God, their evidence-based knowledge (sometimes called science) is similarly plagued with the ubiquitous knowledge-gap.

For atheists to get to their current position, they would need FAITH to believe in the non-existence of God.

Therefore, the believer and atheist are both part of a faith-based religion.

The difference is the former openly admits it while the latter hides it behind the label — atheism.
