RE: You do not "choose" your beliefs. You are (EITHER) CONVINCED (OR) UNCONVINCED.

I use certain words because people can sometimes confuse and conflate between different words, terms, definitions. So, I try finding new combinations of words in order to encourage people to think differently. I believe in the non-aggression principle which Stefan Molyneux and others talk about. So, that belief might be a desire in the sense that a desire can be seed to believing, to choosing beliefs which then produces more choices.
