Atheism is classified as another religion all over the place. Google it. The reason it is not classified so universally, is that there are atheists who don't seem to know the definition of religion, who want to classify atheism differently.

Because Atheists dont believe in any "god like structure". The fundamental theory behind Atheism is that there is no God and hence no need for religion. And yes Atheism is not a religion.

Because they aren't moving under any "celestial" law, man.
As it has been said, not playing a sport can't be a sport.
You said they are "pretty organized", but under what? under one only common thought: God doesn't exist, but there are many atheists believing in life after death, but with no laws to determine how is going to be the step.
To be inside a religion you need some rules to follow. For example, Catholic stuff believes in the final repent. So you can live in sin and just in the final moment say "Oh! I repent!" and then go to the sky. Just really convenient.
Atheists do not believe in something ahead, in some entity with power dictating rules, they (us) just live, but under many different points of view. There's no common rules, there's no religion at all.

Since atheists have a common belief system and they are pretty organized why they do not consider themselves as a part of a another religion which does not have a god?

Because not playing sport is not a sport.

It's always funny when religious idiots try to claim that atheism is also a religion, but why do that, are they saying religions are stupid or bad?
