Weddings and funerals are not religious? (You are right that bithdays and graduation ceremonies are not. “Certain kinds of” concerts had a lot of work being done by “certain kinds of”, but there are concerts that are absolutely religious. I assume you’ll call them “not atheist”.
You were the one that first brought up “an atheist religious ceremony is a contradiction in terms” and I’m not really sure what your goal with the sentence was.
Religious weddings and funerals are common because most people are religious. Most weddings and funerals of atheists I know of were not atheist, because the principals weren’t antitheist enough to care and their families wanted a religious ceremony. But, for example, Ozy and Topher Brennan’s wedding was not religious.
And I don’t know what kinds of concerts you’re referring to at all, but yes, I expect so. Religious and atheist are antonyms.
I don’t consider those religious.

This is an argument about definitions, and I’m not sure what the point is.
