Why assume everyone has a religion?
-
Because lack of religion is atheist. And people have been claiming that. To be upset at this point means you're too ignorant or too lazy to actually know what you fall under.

A-Theist
A = lack of
Theist = belief in a theistic God.
Atheist is literally the lack of belief in a theistic God. It's pretty much the default.
Also:
A-gnostic
A = lack of
Gnostic = knowledge
Agnosticism is simply saying you are incapable of choosing for yourself because you don't have enough information to make a choice.
Agnostic in itself was never meant to be a freestanding belief on it's own. It was meant to be a description of Atheist or Theist.
For example, an Agnostic Atheist, is someone who does not believe because they do not have enough evidence to convince them.
A Gnostic Theist is someone who has 100% certainty in the belief of a theistic God.
These terms are interchangeable.
Gnostic/Agnostic Atheist/Theist. -

Dude....I don't agree. Atheist means a definite lack of belief in God
The title should be "what is your religion (if you have one)?"
I just am nothing. I don't believe or not believe and I don't believe or not believe any religion. -
The literal root words of the word Atheism mean a lack of belief in a theistic God. You can disagree all you want, but that's the beauty of the truth. It doesn't matter what you believe. And not wanting to be anything doesn't magically make you not fit any category. This is literally a binary scenario. The only alternative is if you choose to remain ignorant to it. You're still in a category, you just can't get over your special snowflake syndrome enough to see that.

Chill out, I'm not wanting an argument. From my view I thought atheism was a strong disbelief in any God which I do not have.
Snowflake syndrome sounds good though - I'll be that :p
