I just don't see how a pink unicorn from another galaxy taking a dumb on my lawn is "Superior".

Well you really really are asking to be misunderstood then. You can't just use different definitions of words from everyone else's and expect that a sensible conversation can be had if you don't clarify first what you mean.
No one in their right mind will deny that it is plausible that *somewhere in the universe* there might be beings with capabilities superior to ours (the universe, as they say, is really big). That is not what is meant by being an atheist by anyone ever.
