The reason I ask is that I suspect that many people (and not referring to your friend here) who call themselves atheists are not truly atheists. I suspect that most people believe in some sort of higher power...being spirits, a pagan god, whatever.

I've seen that confusion in some folks as well but not this guy. As far as religion filling in the blanks, I believe that would have been Aquinas' position. If I'm remembering properly, He felt that religion and science couldn't be in conflict so in the face of scientific evidence religion must change.
