I disagree - The reason why atheism is a lack of belief in gods is because it says so in the dictionary and some people proposed the definition. 100 years ago it was the positive denial of gods. Things change. Anyone who forms an atheist association or organization or ideology that proposes atheism as a core requirement is deliberately creating a new branch of atheism because you connect the lack of belief in god with other forms of thinking. This is true specially if the lack of belief in gods is the most fundamental requirements - Atheist clubs are an example. You may have a group of atheists, but they probably share something in common like anti-theism or secularist principles or even hatred for theists
