Well, atheism really has no content. But if an atheist embraces many of the Buddhist tenets and indulges in Buddhist practice, is that then a religion?
Any practice that does not have Divinity as its object is not a religious one no matter how similar its trappings. I say 'zen' meditation is in the same categorey as exercise yoga.
