True. However most people think of religion as the believe in some sort of spirit.
Also, you may well be an atheist buddhist (and antitheist buddhist as well) while being an atheist will not be accordable with any theistic religion, of course.
In my case, when I say "I'm an atheist" I mean that I am a non-believer (in any sort of religious ideas). And this is also how most people take this statement.
