Can evolution be "believed" or "not believed"?

Is there not enough evidence to show that evolution is true? If so, why do people think it's a choice whether or not to accept it. From what we know, it's true, whether people like it or not.

I've often thought the same thing about the question along the lines of "who believes in evolution". Sometimes such a thing is asked of GOP presidential hopefuls (most of the hands don't go up). I object to the very question as well.

If it is a legitimate question, then for the record, I'd also like to express a "belief" in the theory of gravity, germ theory and atomic theory.
