Indeed.
And yet they are Atheists with regard to every other Religion developed by mankind. No fear of the other Hells, no belief that other scriptures are self-evident, no willingness to gamble a lifetime of obedience to an other creed with a payoff after its too late to switch courses.
Most everyone understands that the prospect of Religion is silly as it concerns other people's beliefs. I just include one more faith on that list of ones I don't practice.
Not all nonfalsifiable beliefs qualify as religions. But they sure don't qualify as empirically observable facts either.
