You dont listen. You dont think theism is on the same line as atheism, for no reason.
First off, I have a hard time trying to grasp exactly what you mean by that last sentence... what line? What similarities do they have other than the fact that they relate to a supernatural force (i.e. belief or disbelief)?
As far as your made-up conversation goes... I find it a little ironic that you're painting atheists with a broad, childlike brush while you diddle around any pertinent questions posed to you. "You" don't even answer "yourself" with any sort of reason.

Faith is faith, period. You can add blind, half-blind, color-blind, and whatever other preface you want to it - it doesn't change the meaning. Faith is belief that is not based on evidence or reason. There is no scientific evidence for a god (if you've found some I'm sure lots of people would LOVE to hear about this) so your belief in one, or thirteen, does have a faith-based element. Denial of that would definitely be irrational.
