Or that there is no possibility there is an intelligent influence interacting with our reality?
Seems pretty dogmatic to me.
This is getting truly sad.
So far several people, me twice, have tried to explain to you that the vast majority of atheists do not claim, with 100% cetainty, that there is no intelligent designer.
Atheism is a provisional position, not a dogmatic one.
Maybe your first post here should have been to have atheists (you know, the people you are talking to?), to explain our position to you.

Take this as friendly advice; engage in conversations with people else face the consequences.
I'm sorry, did I misunderstand your point? I thought you were asking about the dogmas I was referring to...
No, you are creating strawmen.
None of us here have any of the dogmas you claim we do. Nor do the vast majority of atheists.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
