It sounds like you don't understand what atheist or agnostic actually mean.
Yes an atheist believes there is basically no evidence there is a God while an agnostic believes it's an unknowable or unanswerable questions.
The issue is if an atheist adheres to some dogma (eg all religious people are bad and dogmatic, people who don't read the same books are ignorant) then it becomes a relatively high dogmatic belief system, for that person.
