Can you honestly say that atheism has any of those?
People of a certain religion are drawn together by their faith in that religion. The only thing drawing atheists together, in my opinion at least, is their lack of religion.

Atheists are drawn together by faith also, however, it's not theistic faith but atheistic faith. As for your question, atheism does have a belief (can extend to make it plural also) and does have a worldview (i.e. no god is responsible for events).
