“Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the innocent one, who was not opposing you.”

It’s more that Theists attack Atheists for believing absolutely in nothing, instead of not believing anything unproven.
And there’s the disconnect. If it can be proven it can’t be believed.
If you don’t believe in something unproven, then you don’t believe in anything at all.
And that’s fine, by the way.
You’re taking statements beyond their logical extremes, ad absurdum. You can believe facts that have moumtains of evidence, and not believe stories with no evidence, and be perfectly rational and believe in things.
Belief is accepting something without evidence. If you have evidence, belief isn’t necessary, because you know it.
Saying you won’t accept anything without evidence is saying you don’t hold any beliefs at all. But nobody is really like that. Atheists believe all kinds of things.
The part that trips people up is when something is unknown but knowable. That is where someone can have belief without having faith.
Faith is for stuff that is not and never can be empirically known.
