Partial disagreement. There are two varieties of atheism, strong and weak. Strong atheism positively asserts that there are no Gods. This is indeed a leap of faith.
Weak atheism, on the other hand, is the case in which a person does not believe in the existence of any deities but does not explicitly assert that there are none. This is not a leap of a faith, but instead a lack of it.
Pretty good take on atheism, but there are more than 2 “varieties”.
“Weak atheism” seems to match the definition of an agnostic?
An agnostic neither believes nor disbelieves.
Agnosticism is something you’d look at as different than either strong or weak here? Interesting how you put it.
