Athiesm is a Faith?

[CapnAwesome]

As anyone well aquainted with logical reasoning knows, its impossible to prove the non-existence of something. So if a proof that God does not exist is impossible, does this mean that beyond the proof of balance of probability ( which has seen many an innocent person executed wrongly ) based on our current level of science, any belief in athiesm or theism ultimately is a faith choice on two sides of same coin.

It depends on whether or not that you accept non-belief as a default position. If you take a number of other things, and the example I always used is Bigfoot. I don't believe that it is a position of faith to not believe in Bigfoot. Insufficient evidence has been presented to me for both Bigfoot and god. I don't believe in them by default. If a child was raised with all absence of references to god, he would almost certainly not believe in a god. It's the default position. Hence I can't justifiably call Atheism a faith.
