No, but when people don't have theism they need to find something else around which to build a worldview. Not believing in a god is not a workable foundation so they seek out other things (e.g. secular humanism). It isn't all that surprising that many atheists find common ground in other things and while that might be mistaken for atheism being an ideology it falls apart when you look deeper. There is no "athe-ism", there are just other worldviews when you start from "a-theism".
