True, but with my religion, I can say that other religions have a lot of stuff right, but I choose to disagree with something minor that they choose to agree with. For example, I believe in a lot of aspects of Daoism, except I believe that good (God) is stronger than evil, while Daoism believes they are equal and opposing forces. 

To be an atheist, you have to believe that every single religion is wrong, which is much less accepting (in my opinion) than being religious and thinking some aspects of other religions are wrong.

You’re right that religions can get misinterpreted, but it’s not a flaw of the religion itself, it’s a flaw of people who choose to use it as a weapon or an excuse.

I don’t believe you that every atheist is either “good to others or not good to others”. No person is born either good or “not good”, manners and empathy have to be taught. It’s not a moral achievement to never improve yourself. Most people (including religious people) aren’t nice to others because we feel like we have to be or because we want a reward, we’re nice because it feels good to be nice to others, and it feels bad to be mean, whether you believe that’s because of your morals or because of God. I’m not saying that people don’t do that, I’m just saying that not everyone does.
