Being aethiest uses no faith whatsoever. There are no consequences for it and thus you do not have to have fear or a need for faith that you are right....

your definition of agnostic is off. Here it is for reference:
a person who holds the view that any ultimate reality (as God) is unknown and probably unknowable; broadly : one who is not committed to believing in either the existence or the nonexistence of God or a god
Now lets address faith. Here are the definition:
1 a: allegiance to duty or a person : loyalty b (1): fidelity to one's promises (2): sincerity of intentions
2 a (1): belief and trust in and loyalty to God (2): belief in the traditional doctrines of a religion b (1): firm belief in something for which there is no proof (2): complete trust
3: something that is believed especially with strong conviction; especially : a system of religious beliefs <the Protestant faith>
Part 2b directly relates to the subject at hand, no?
