yup. the "ism" part is the club part. Bumper stickers, sages, places to meet, and I even heard of atheism retreats.

The "ism" part also promotes some people thinking that atheist should reject any and all observations that don't line up with atheism's goal, that being the top club with the real truth of "lack belief in anything no matter what observations say."
