New Atheism is insanely dogmatic, but it’s not the same as Atheism, and has been criticized by Atheists who classify “New Atheism” as being akin to a hate-group
and Scientism is a school of philosophy, albeit one that’s mocked relentlessly (Basically, the philosophy that everything that is real can be measured, and if it can’t be measured it isn’t real)
But… that’s as close as I’d get to describing Science or Atheism as religions…

I say this as an agnostic person for the record.
