Atheism is complete trust in the fact there is no God.
''strong belief in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual conviction rather than proof.''
There is no proof that there is no God, so it requires faith to believe that. Religion is belief in something, so Atheism is a religion.
What do you guys think?

Of course not. Atheism is a lack of faith.

To your first claim, that "atheism is complete trust in the fact that there is no God," any glance at what atheists believe quickly reveals the truth. We do not have complete faith in the non-existence of gods. This is a large misconception about us. In fact, most of us do not believe that there is no God. We simply do not believe that there is a God. The burden of proof lies on the people making the claim, and atheists are simply people who decide that that burden has not been met.
Clarification:
Atheism=/=Belief in NO God.
Atheism=No belief in God.
To your second claim, you should've known that atheists do not have a doctrine. Religion is not belief in something, by the way. Is believing in aliens a religion? I responded to the former part of your second comment already.

I always thought agnostics weren't too sure, but that Atheists are sure there is no God...

But there is no 100% proof of there being no God. But Atheists believe there is no God. It's a belief without evidence, just like other religions (although some religions have proof of them existing, especially Christianity).

That's not how the burden of proof works.
Prove the existence of God.
Until that can be done, atheism is the position of "proof not met".

Ha, no. There is no more proof of a Christian God than there is proof of the existence of Odin or Zeus or Ra or Baal or Vishnu.
