Anyway, as the title said, I'm curious to know from people's perspective here whether you consider it a sort of negative point against morality to believe in God. Is doing so immoral in your views? No need to get into details such as "well, it depends on what you believe about God and yadda yadda...."
...Just belief in God in and of itself. Is that an immoral thing?
What an odd question. No is the answer.
Is being an atheist immoral in your opinion?

If atheism is a person's sincere conclusion, I don't see how it can be immoral. As someone else stated in this thread, a person can't really control what they do or don't honestly believe to be true.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
