It's just a devout belief there is "No God" is to me, the same as saying "I believe in God". The atheist still spiritually believes in something, even if it is nothing.
My non-belief is god is nothing like anyones belief in god, karma, etc.

There is no 'spiritually' factor to it, but then again I've never met an atheist who says 'there is no god' as an absolute, most of us think it is extremely unlikely that their is a god and even less likely that if there is a god it will be anything like the god/gods that man has come up with.

Saying there is no god as an absolute would be not unlike a religion as it would be based on faith but this is atypical for atheists.
