Atheism doesn't change human nature in any fundamental way. Reddit is not at fault here.

In fact, I see human nature as ritualistic as ever. As I see the world, most things in religion are more human-in-a-society based (a ritual for adulthood, a ritual for marriage, and some more rituals) than belief based.

We atheists/agnostics/non-religious should separate the wheat from the chaff and stop assuming something is bad just because religion does it.
