Depends on what you mean by that.
What I believe is that God is goodness and love. A person who rejects goodness and love is ultimately rejecting God and God'a ways. But a person who simply doesn't believe God is real, isn't "rejecting" God if such person still strives to embrace goodness and love and strives to live accordingly.
A true rejection of God is fully knowing and understanding that God is goodness/love, and then choosing to turn away from all that and to embrace hatred and greed instead.
If I reject god and do not believe he is goodness and love is that a true rejection?
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!
