The Foolish Heart of Agnosticism

This is true. It is a good thing for us to have faith and confidence in ourselves.
I personally would still not use the word faith with reference to realizing or understanding that we cannot know either way about a God’s existence due to our limitations.

Faith is holding to belief in something based on what is seen despite what is not seen.

This to me sounds a lot more like theism or deism ~~ belief in a personal or impersonal God ~~ because of what is seen or appears to be seen, despite what cannot be seen or proven. Faith requires that we say yes to crawling out on that limb. Agnosticism sees how shaky that limb is and chooses to live with the questions and doubts.
