The only thing keeping god belief alive, after all, is a fiction book called the bible and the delusion of god believers. Because goodness forbid that theists reason outside of their imaginations.
No, absent of any evidence or proof one way or the other, the credible belief is no belief, a lack of belief. I have no evidence or proof that you’re married, the credible belief isn’t to assume that you’re not married, but put simply that I don’t know or believe one way or the other.

In order for an atheist to claim he has no burden of proof, he has to proclaim a lack of belief, where you hold a belief, a belief that God isn’t real, which is as much a positive belief as proclaiming the holocaust didn’t happen, or SandyHook wasn’t real.
If you still want to claim that your belief that god isn’t real isn’t based on evidence or proof, than I guess you hold a belief without evidence or proof that it’s true?
Enjoying your word salad?
There is nothing dishonest about the fact that god does not exist.
The dishonesty is imagining that you have no burden of proof when making such a claim.
It’s like a holocaust denier claiming the holocaust didn’t happen, and proclaiming he has no burden of proof to demonstrate this, only those who claim it did, do.
