I'm an atheist, and I have no faith. I agree that atheists ought to be completely faithless. Some make positive claims of gods not existing; I disagree with those claims for the reason that disproving a premise is exceedingly difficult unless internal contradictions can be demonstrated. I don't think those claims are based on faith, though, but rather a simple overstepping of evidence.
That sounds right to me. I prefer to say I do have faith, and in many things. Just not god claims. No need. Not missed.
