To deny a belief is not to side with the opposite, or anything similar.
I don't believe the multiverse exists; I don't see any evidence for it (maybe I would if I looked into it further) and, to me, it seems unlikely. That is not to say that I believe it doesn't exist. It's not that I believe it doesn't exist; simply that I don't accept it as true or false.
Quote:What is the difference between rejecting religious claims and rejecting scientific claims? Are atheists so cowardly that they believe rejecting religious claims requires no justification?It depends on the claim. The principle of rejecting a belief depends on the claim, that is. (It's not limited to scientific/theistic claims)
