Each religion has there own perspective. It's the us who see common notion as general to all.

Not to generalize but there other Christians too that also perceive their values but they themselves don't understand values.

Even the religions of atheism and science theory have their own unscientific perspectives.

atheism
[ey-thee-iz-uh m]

noun

1. the doctrine or belief that there is no God.

2. disbelief in the existence of a supreme being or beings.

All you need to do is to compare the two above definitions. Atheistic practices and beliefs hold much of the same things that religion holds. Some of it is in different ways than other religions hold them.

Use your thinking when you make the comparison. Anybody can simply read the words of religion and brush them off as though they didn't pertain to atheism.

Doing this brush-off is itself an act of faith, making it part of the religion of a person.
