Your question is worded awkwardly. "Morals" tend to to be tied to "actions" and not things. Are you asking: "Do non human and non living things have the same intrinsic value in the universe as people?" I would say yes, but their role is different. Or maybe you are asking something else.
Well, weekly meetings is common with lots and lots of organized groups. I don't see that to be particularly similar to religion, unless you consider bowling teams especially similar ro religion.
Not neccessarily. People who describe themselves as atheists versus those who discribe themselves as agnostics can have very similar belief systems. Plot (describes self as agnostic) and I (describes self as atheist) both have pretty similar views. Of course there are people who are clearly atheist but not agnostic (those who don't even acknowledge a logical possibility of God) and those who are agnostic but not atheist (hippie wierdos mostly) but there's a lot of overlap.
Well it just seems to be not much more then getting together and hanging out once a week. That's not particularly similar to religions.
People love to join groups of enthusiastic people who subscribe to same "dogma" whether it be for sports teams, garden clubs, dancing, TV shows, computer games, book clubs or religion. They are not all "religions", but many can and do replace the old role that religion played in peoples lives. We are a social species and seek out opportunities to reinforce our beliefs and interests among similar people.
If you define "religion", then the line will be a lot less arbitrary.
If, for example, you defined a religion as any social organization which uses answers to all the following questions as the basis for its activities and beliefs, then it would be a religion.
