How you arrived at this i'll never know. Christians are most certainly
not atheists. Atheism is believe in/ be without a thoery (which would be God).
If they believe in "one more God" then they stop becoming atheists.
They don't believe in other Gods because their faithe is in Christianity. It's what they
believe. "We", as in atheists, don't believe in any God's because that's what we believe. It is what fits for us. It makes the most sense to us.
Religions will never understand any other religions fully - they can know their principals, teachings, etc... But when it comes to the faith everything goes out the window.
It's like saying to a Muslim or a Jew "So why don't you come and be a christian?
" Admittadly, there are those who "convert" but this is because they have found something stronger and more compelling to believe in.
