(1)Take the trouble to find out what the word 'atheism" actually means.Your post indicates you have no idea.
(2) Look up "burden of proof". You have it,we do not. It is you who have the obligation to explain,justify and prove your position. We need explain,justify, prove exactly nothing; we make no claims. You're the one doing that.
(3)Once you've grasped both concepts, either provide some evidence to support whatever collection of superstitions you favour, or stop wasting my time and bugger off, there's a good chap.
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
"Galatians 6:7" God does not have to prove Himself. It is for man to believe. And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house. Acts 16:31 Your unbelief will cost you some day.
But wait, you just said you were talking about God, not religion. Obviously, you can't make an argument for one without calling on the other, can you?
