It doesn't matter, you aren't even born with an ability to grasp the concept of "god", you can't even walk.
Any talk of "god" is completely irrelevant, regardless of which side you're on.

Here's what it boils down to:
If you do not yet understand that people die, how could you possibly hold a belief about what happens after you die?
Even if it is a rejection of a belief, that still means you must know what the concept of "death" is in order to reject it.
That's why it doesn't make sense to claim that we are born atheists, it's an irrelevant question and doesn't make any logical sense.
