Why do Athiests require 'proof' that God exists?

God has already created the criteia for belief and His existence. The atheist can stamp their feet all they want and shout that everyone must meet their demands but the believer knows it just doesn't work that way. If the atheist/unbeliever wants proof that God exists then they must do things God's way.

God's way is: accept the Bible as true; humble oneself to God recognizing that he rules not unbelief; repent of their sins. the evidence they do get is marred by their unbelief and desires to live theirown lives as they please and still expect to get a reward.

Again, it doesn't work that way. Entry to heaven and meeting God goes through Jesus as He said "no man cometh unto the father but by me"

The rules are very clear and FAITH is part of the equation.

Affirm the consequent much? I knew that you fundies were bad at logic, but such a blatant use fallacies left and right? Really?

Yes, we would. Your delusions have nothing to do with god's existence.

No, the lies and immorality of your god and your bible are the indicator that they were invented and are false.
