I think it does because it changes what is being said. "I believe in God" is not saying the same thing as "There is a God".
It does change what's being said to a degree (although in essence if you believe in something you think its true), but I'm not arguing that point.. We are talking out burden of proof, and it doesn't shift the burden of proof if you use the word "believe".

Okay, I just wanted to be clear on that because too often I see people don't know the difference and try to claim evolution is false because of it.
