No atheist here has ever, ever provided ‘any’ evidence to back up their claim that God does not exist. Atheists are most definitely making a claim just as theists are. So rather than shrugging off any burden of proof…as we’ve seen the atheists here do over and over and over…the atheist should understand that their claim ‘also’ needs justification, not just the theist's.

The position of the atheists here that the burden of proof rests on just the theist…and not them…is pretty lame, as well as disingenuous, dishonest, weak, and hypocritical.

So true, so true.
