The existence of a God or other being has been replaced by institutions that are revered with the same amount of religious zeal and fervor. The reason why memes like "Deboonker" and so many people making fun of atheists for being hyper-neurotic intellectual defenders of Enlightenment founded reasoning and sciene who incessantly have to find anyone spouting anything that goes against the grain of established scientific knowledge as being a danger to modern knowledge's accessibility, spread, and credibility because in their view, Christianity and Islam if they feel need to critique the latter as there is a significant camp of Atheists also fall into the category of hysterical "SJWs" who have to scrutinize those who hold a certain amount of supposed privilege in western society.The existence of God is antithetical to the modern culture that desires total freedom of thought and action through absolute relativism.
They may not like the idea of being compared to being a religion, but they show a profuse amount of dedication to wanting science to confirm certain philosophical desires of their being no higher power in the universe and that everything in the universe has been made from abject nothingness and chaos while humanity should become some unchained being through technology to live out the rest of the universes days within technological constructs and complexes that maintain some form of immortality.
In modern culture, the total freedom of thought and action as you have put it has allowed for some rather destructive proclivities to manifest that in other times, would be disparaged through moral code and often by force. The heavy presence of contraceptives and the easy access to abortion has devastated the birth rate of native industrialized "wealthy" countries, prominently in places like Europe where there really isn't much of a creed or common focus. Everything there is done in the name of tolerance and "progress" so that all people could have their total freedom of behavior and expression, even if it comes at the cost of the suffering of the native population and the allowance of civil disturbances that causes disgruntlement from the populace. These cultures do not last long as expected as they will either be replaced by something else as bodies of power that rely solely on the sake of preserving and progressing the need for freedom that in the past, would not be allowed and only practiced by those with wealth in intimate circles of intellectuals.
