Right on hoc. I agree that our perspectives are similar hoc, and it is of no consequence to me that you are an atheist at all, you're AOK in my book. As you have correctly stated I have come come to a different conclusion (but honestly not out of desire, at least not as I see it) than you.
However the conclusion I have reached is not that consciousness is part of the physical universe, but that consciousness is responsible for the creation of the physical universe, or to state your inverse, that the physical universe is part of consciousness.
