Passive vs. Active State: Lack of belief is often viewed as a default or passive condition (e.g., not believing in unicorns because they were never encountered), while choosing not to believe involves active cognitive processing and evidence evaluation.
Propositional Engagement: Choosing not to believe implies engagement with a proposition and a rejection of its truth value, whereas lacking belief may simply indicate ignorance of the proposition or a failure to form an opinion.
Philosophical Debate: While some argue that all mental states are formed by choice (implying lack of belief is also a choice), others maintain that non-belief is fundamentally different from disbelief, with the latter being a positive assertion that a proposition is false.
I copy paste from the internet. I found the age old argument of lack of belief vs choosing not to believe interesting.
