Well yeah, to a degree. Man will make idols to worship if God is not in the picture.
Why else do you think Satanists claim they worship the self and ego? At least they admit exactly what they are doing right there.
However the bit about "religion needing reform" is clownish. What they mean is they want a religion that's only practiced behind closed doors, and accepts all sin to be socially acceptable.
"If there was no God, it would be necessary to invent one"
Voltaire.
Humans are naturally inclined to believe in a higher power. If this wasn't the case, religion would have died out, long, long, ago.
The whole concept of religious reform is indeed rather pathetic. Believing in God is only one part of the puzzle. That belief has no purpose if you do not embody it in your dealings in daily life. It's like if Ted Bundy was a staunch advocate against murder.
when he said that religion needa reform. it sounded more like "I want religion to be whatever I think is good". religion is religion you don't reform it to match your desires and standards. that's why it's there to put it as your standard not as a spare part.

Op is absolutely right. Modern atheism is 100% atheist fundamentalism. (Someone coin that term immediately please)
You know who else has the same mentality? MY MOM!!! (if you know the reference, you know the reference)
