BTW, one of the people you've been talking to is a Christian, just FYI. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't make them an atheist, even here.
What’s common is belief. Simply belief in the immaterial which is the initial step in the search for God. Your definitions Don’t allow for belief.
There's nothing in the definition of 'atheist' that would keep one from believing in something supernatural as long as it's not a god.

This would make your position worse.
What do you think Ahriman's position is?
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
