Even if that were true it doesn't necessarily mean they choose not to believe.
I rather take people at their word and appreciate when they do the same for me. If someone tells me they don't believe God exists, I take it at face value. No reason for me to assume I can read their mind and tell them what they really think.

"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."
