only because the dictionary definition of religion was written too narrow-mindedly, a western style of thinking that didn't consider faith without god to be a religion. buddhism still discusses the true nature of reality and afterlife, just as the rest of the world tries to explain it with god. religion isn't really about god, it's about explaining our existence, weather it be through god or not.
