It might be easier to just say they're all in their natural state, including babies.
I feel that belief of any sort requires cognition of some sort beyond the innate.
Sure, yeah. I agree that an atheist and a plant both share a lack of belief in gods, but the "ist" part does clearly define a person too.
It is indeed the natural state, the default position of disbelief. But I agree it's a little redundant to say you don't believe something you've never heard of.
