At that point, you could argue that they hold a positive belief. But if you say "theres a god" and I say, "until i see evidence, i see no reason to agree with you," that is you having failed to convince me. the burden of proof rests on he or she who made the claim.
I'm not talking about the difference between a positive belief in no God and a simple lack of belief. What I say applies in both cases.
