Faith describes believing in something in spite of lack of evidence, or even evidence to the contrary. You don't believe in God, so you don't "have faith that God doesn't exist." You are just being rational and skeptical like a good critical thinking individual.
It's bad enough when Christians claim that atheists have to have faith to not believe in God, we don't need atheists saying it too.
That was my thought also when read Andy's post.
I do not spend any effort being atheist nor do I treat it like a religion. Quite the opposite, I devote as much time thinking about others gods as I do their fairy tales.
