Atheism has no doctrine, dogma, holy books, or even leaders.
Atheism is simply NOT being convinced gods exist. Full stop.
Atheism is NOT a claim, it is a response to a claim.
Every thing else individual atheists do, or don't do, is outside the purview of atheism.
So it is up to every atheist to accept religions or not.

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.
