There is no proof to show the existence of a god. When someone makes a baseless claim, it is up to them to prove it true, it is not up to others to prove it false.
That would be like me saying all life on Earth was created by a magical turtle who is invisible and lives in a black hole. Can you prove it isn't true? No. Is that a reason to believe it? No. Would you take me seriously if I said that you should believe it because you can't prove it isn't true? Probably not, you would likely expect me to prove what I am saying is true.
So it is the same thing. Don't tell me there is a God, offer no proof, and than tell me that I should believe it unless I can prove it untrue. Clearly the burden of proof is on those making the claim.
why are you guys atheist ( to the atheists only?
