Both suppositions (creator or no creator) are equally difficult to get one's head around. When we of finite capacity contemplate the infinite, whether it be physical or supernatural, no concrete conclusion is possible, as we lack the ability and time to process all the information. Yet the answer itself must exist: "true" or "false". I can't put down somebody for choosing one or the other based on his judgment given the unknowns involved.

So what you are saying is, atheist have faith in their belief there is no god, and others have faith there is a god. But both have a common denominator of faith in the totally unknown and incomprehensible.
