You've just bitten a bullet! You say that if there are no compelling arguments or evidence that show that God does not exist, then atheism is a matter of faith, not rationality. Therefore, it seems that you do not think that the mere absence of evidence for the existence of God is enough to justify believing that she does not exist. This view is also suggested by your earlier claim that it is not rational to believe that the Loch Ness monster does not exist even if, despite years of trying, no evidence has been presented to suggest that it does exist.
These are the two questions I answered contradictorily, and so took a direct hit (but no bullets bitten). However, if I may try to weasel out of it, I misread the question about God.

Haven't you always wanted a monkey?
