Atheism is a faith too.  They have faith in logic and science instead of a deity and a Book.

Faith is believing something without evidence
Science is based on evidence
So no

Atheism has faith in proof then.

These two words mean the exact opposite things.
This claim is ridiculous


Atheism does not depend on any scientific claim being true.
Religion requires its claims being true

But isn't Agnosticism a balance between religion and lack thereof?

I can't even tell if I count as a Christan,

I don't believe in that God just made the Earth appear, I believe in that it formed itself but with the help of God over millions of years, not 4 days.

And a few other things.

Look up Deism and see if it fits with you
It's a bit of a conclusion jump, but a lot of times when I see somene say something like your first line, when they elaborate more on what they mean, it fits with deism
Alternatively, you could just elaborate more and I'd tell you

Atheism absolutely relies on faith.
What happened before the Big Bang? When is the beginning of time?

Atheists still believe in Aristotle's theory of abiogenesis (spontaneous generation).  The main problem I have with their "proofs" are "Where did the first life come from?"

Chemical reaction --> Life with DNA and responses
OR
Life just appeared from nothing (fundamentally the same as Christianity)

In absolutely no way do you need to be able to answer every single question to reject an idea.
This isn't faith because the credibility of other scientific ideas are not affected by the lack of knowledge in other areas. Science admits that there are things it doesn't know, and it keeps working to figure them out. On the other hand, one of religion's purposes is to explain the unexplainable. If there's something it can't explain (especially regarding something as creation) then it's not doing that right.
Simply not believing something is not the same thing as outright rejecting it's possibilty

Oh, its you again

I tend to think of myself as someone who belives in God, Jesus Christ, or an upper being, but I also belive that the earth was created by the big bang, and evolution is a thing.

I think more people should stop complaining about what others believe in, it gets very annoying.

I am stuck between christian and atheist

I believe in microevolution.  I think that species can adapt to changes (birds slowly developing new beaks, animals adjusting health patterns, etc).  I don't believe that a giraffe can turn into a horse, though.  Or that a fish can turn into a crocodile.

[Headcrab Zombie]

I believe in microevolution.

Microevolution and macroevolution are terms made up by creationists, or at least in the way creationisms use them. In reality, macro is just a bunch of micro changes accumluted over many generations. the two occur via the same process, for the same reason.

I don't believe that a giraffe can turn into a horse, though.  Or that a fish can turn into a crocodile.

Things don't spontaneously turn into other things. This isn't what the theory of evolution states. Same thing as I said when you were ranting about homoloveuality: maybe you should research things before you try to discuss them

That has nothing to do with faith, it is simply an unanswered question and ackowledged as one. Atheism is a faith when not collecting cards is a hobby.

Atheist and science are not alike, stop trying to disprove science and start trying to prove god exists

Why do people have a hard time understanding that people have different beliefs?

Try harder.

In absolutely no way do you need to be able to answer every single question to reject an idea.

Ironically, that's exactly why you are rejecting Christianity. You can't answer everything about evolution yet you believe it to be "logical".

It's hard to prove science to be absolutely right when some questions are left unanswered. The Bible has an answer for any question you might have.
