Just because it's disbelief or the conviction there's no possibility a creator god exists doesn't mean they don't believe in other things, I think, things like loyalty or servitude.
Yes they do, however the meaning of the word "belief" isn't really the same in both instances.
Once means to profess acceptance as real, even though there is no direct evidence for it, and the other means to "value" something.
They are different. Trying to get away with saying they are the same is the equivocation fallacy.
It's a kind of magic?
