Disbelief \Dis*be*lief"\, n.
The act of disbelieving;; a state of the mind in which one is
fully persuaded that an opinion, assertion, or doctrine is
not true; refusal of assent, credit, or credence; denial of
belief.

Our belief or disbelief of a thing does not alter the
nature of the thing. --Tillotson.

No sadder proof can be given by a man of his own
littleness that disbelief in great men. --Carlyle.

Syn: Distrust; unbelief; incredulity; doubt; skepticism. --
{Disbelief}, {Unbelief}. Unbelief is a mere failure to
admit; disbelief is a positive rejection. One may be an
unbeliever in Christianity from ignorance or want of
inquiry; a unbeliever has the proofs before him, and
incurs the guilt of setting them aside. Unbelief is
usually open to conviction; disbelief is already
convinced as to the falsity of that which it rejects.
Men often tell a story in such a manner that we regard
everything they say with unbelief. Familiarity with the
worst parts of human nature often leads us into a
disbelief in many good qualities which really exist
among men.
