I know where you're coming from, but think about it. Lack of belief is not belief. It is LACK of belief.

When I say I don't believe Santa Claus exists, it's not a belief in the non-existence of Santa. It doesn't work that way.

I think we mean the same thing, but we are wording it differently. It's not so cut and dried, and it really depends on how you feel about beliefs or disbelief. I'm not justifying my wording, also, I can admit that it's probably wrong. But I guess you get what I'm saying.
