Definitionally, an atheist is someone who believes that there is no God.

You're missing a word: "yet". The problem with the search for consciousness has been one of definition: we have yet to give consciousness an operational definition, so science can hardly test it, when the word is meaningless to it.
Thus, consciousness remains a topic of philosophy, not of science.
