Personally I think atheism is as much a leap of faith as belief in a god. Agnosticism is the rational, sceptical position.
There was a long discussion on this at one point on another thread and I think Crashfrog stated the best position of being a "provisional atheist". That is having no belief in god(s) until some evidence appears. I believe this is really the most rational and honest position.
