This is entirely wrong. Atheism only adressess the issue of god, nothing more. Atheists can and do adhere to such a philosophy, but they are not forced to. Belief in a supernatural realm where ghosts and poltergeists reign supreme-- while ridiculous-- is not out of the question for an atheist to believe.

consciousness is a product of the brain-- a physical thing. No brain= no consciousness. It certainly exists in reality, simply because the reality in which we live happened to support life that allowed for such complex brains to evolve. Had life not taken hold anywhere in the universe, then no consciousness would arise, yet that universe (that reality) would keep on ticking. So no, you have not "proven" anything.

An object cannot gain an attribute except through and from the medium with which it exists.
Everything and anything which is self-causal is conscious.
