However, it doesn't have connections with "sacred texts, or holy places"
except to deny such things are valid.

Atheism DOES relate to and adhere to beliefs in regards to ethics, and
societal organisation that relate humanity to what an anthropologist has
called "an order of existence".

A religion isn't necessarily about the sacred or holy or even about a
belief in a god. It is a belief system that has both a connotative and
denotative understanding of how it is defined and what is involved in
its practices.

religion

noun
"the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially
a personal God or gods".

"atheism, just another faith based religious belief"
