Is there such a thing as a dogmatic atheist?

[EarthScienceguy]

A dogmatic atheist flatly denies that there is a Divine Being.
A skeptical atheist doubts the ability of the human mind to determine, whether or not there is a God.
A critical atheist maintains that there is no valid proof for the existence of God.

Especially with the state that cosmology is in. I maintain that it is impossible for anyone to be a dogmatic atheist. If you think you are a dogmatic atheist then you must answer the question of what was there before this universe came into existence.

Question for debate: Is there such a thing as a dogmatic atheist?

What physicists have discovered, is that what we refer to as 'reality' is not fundamental - there is {?} 'behind' it which is mathematically detectable, but unable to be described re "what it is"

Search "Spacetime is doomed" re that.

Physicists are NOT saying that what we experience as reality doesn't really exist, but rather - that the math points to the reality we experience as not being fundamental to itself...implying that something else is fundamental to the Universe existing...

The materialist does not believe in anything other than basically energy and the laws that energy obeys.
Quantum mechanics says that everything obeys a wave function that collapses when it is observed. Up until the wave function collapses all possibilities are possible.

So what was discovered is that measurement depends on who is measuring or who is observing.

The materialist's only option is some sort of Multi-verse theory with many different realities.

Quantum mechanics would indicate that nothing is real until it is observed.

What about that which is doing the observing? Is that included as being 'non-real'?
