say what? (Epistemology) (The atheist delusion)

I would agree that there is a difference between disbelieving and not believing. And disbelieving has an element of faith; in the same sense believing in a negative statement. eg there are no pixies under my garden shed. -While in practice or pragmatically I might disbelieve in pixies under my garden shed, philosophically speaking I just don't believe in those pixies. Just simply because there is no evidence for the said pixies, other than some Victorian tales.-This is a general comment and not aimed particularly at anyone's post in particular.
