That isn’t true, because there is no act of faith involved in not believing. Not believing isn’t a positive state; it’s a failure to hold a belief.
Not so at all.
The agnostic position is neither a belief in God or a belief in no God.
That is the state you are referring to.
The atheist position is another statement of faith i.e. there is no G-d, only with a minus sign. In the absence of proof, either statement is one of belief without evidence. Belief without evidence is the definition of faith.
