If you're happy with any answer that makes you comfortable, I suppose.

'Atheology' would be the study of atheism and atheists. I'm flattered you think that encompasses cosmology, but real physicists (some of whom are even theists!) are driving that. And you need more than 'it strikes me as incomplete' to show it is incomplete. A lot of why questions have what or how answers.
