I only quote the dictionary because this is the system I believe when it comes to "religion". When someone "religiously" follows a set of idea's and belief's in their lives it then becomes sort of a religion for them.
Seeing as all religions stem from one person passing their "belief's" on to another or simply explaining their belief system it is safe to assume religion can also disclosed to one or a group.
I have always considered atheism as a religion by these definitions alone.
