not sure what you mean by "they just don't believe in it."
In my opinion, a person is saved when he/she believes in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus and makes a commitment to Him. That person may have been "baptized" as a baby and honestly sees no need for being re-baptized. That person may (like Quakers) believe baptism is a spiritual experience and should not be done in physical water. Or, the person may believe that baptism may be administered by sprinkling, pouring, or immersion and may choose the non immersion type of baptism.
