As much as there is no scientific evidence to prove the existence of deities, there is none to prove the non-existence of a deities either. Taking up a position of either asserting they exist or asserting they do not exist requires a leap of faith.
As much as theists should not fill vacuums in knowledge with their god, atheists should not fill vacuums in knowledge with the lack of a god, both are factually unsubstantiated positions unless they are prepared to accept theism and atheism are both positions of faith.
The most anyone can say factually is, we do not know.

Is it a faith not to believe in unicorns? ----- Not believing in what there is no evidence for is not a faith. Should someone bring evidence that there are either unicorns or god, I will revise my opinion. It isn't a matter of faith.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
