No, it does not. There is no faith required in order to not believe a proposition for which I see no compelling evidence.

So if someone makes the positive claim that 'A' is true but the evidence that is supposed to support that claim doesn't convince you at all, what do you believe? Especially if there is no way to show that 'A' is necessarily false?
Should we believe every unfalsifiable proposition?

Well, you have just made my argument (against evolution) - now you can take it to court (for ‘your’ atheistic position). Sad!
