" religion requires faith without evidence, materialism and atheism do not."

This is dogma preached by materialists, of course. The fact is that opposites are of the same nature. Theism and its opposite, atheism, are both belief systems. Neither of them is scientific. Vociferous denials notwithstanding.

Atheism is not a belief system (and neither is theism for that matter) it is simply a description.
