Nietzsche talks about this kinda, he says that Christian (slave) morality involves the belief that good and evil are a choice. This is opposed to master morality, which involves the belief that good and bad are innate and that you are born one way or another. To Christians, belief and nonbelief are a choice, similar if not part of the choice between good and evil. My mother also thinks this way, although she is not a believer (she was, however, raised with religion). Personally, I do not feel I ever had a choice to believe or not believe, I simply could not believe no matter how hard I tried.
