No. I think sometimes you can't help but believe/disbelieve in certain things.

Good. So if I lack a belief in God, it's not because I've 'chosen' to disbelieve in God, it's because I can't believe in God. I can't believe in God until I've become convinced; just like I can't suddenly choose to believe that up is down and down is up, I can't choose to believe in God.

Lacking that belief is a part of me over which I have no control. Yet I will still end up in hell/not entering heaven/being destroyed after death/etc based on that?
