No, atheism ("a-" [without] "theism" [god belief]) is merely the
absence of belief in gods.

There might be an atheist out there who "worships" something, but I've
never met her/him.

Since this is off topic on talk.origins, let me take the opportunity
as a regular of alt.atheism to invite you over to that newsgroup for a
discussion of your...notions. We'd *love* it if you showed up and
told us what we believe and what we "worship." We haven't had fresh
meat of this kind in, oh, I don't know, 10 minutes or so....
