Most people do not claim to believe in smurfs. As a result we do not have to designate our lack of belief in smurfs to differentiate ourselves. If there were a significant number of people that believed in smurfs we who did not believe in smurfs would declare our difference with the label asmurfists.
Now can we prove that smurfs do not exist? Not without complete knowledge of the universe or sufficient definition of smurfs that we can rule them out by some other means. But a concrete means of refuting smurfs is not necissary to acknowledge that we don't happen to believe in them.
