Understanding the Burden of Proof
#8
RE: Understanding the Burden of Proof
While I agree there is no burden of proof for an Atheist for his disbelief, what about if someone disbelieved in the wall of China existing. Surely people will wonder why he doesn't believe in the wall of China existing, when everyone believes it's reasonable to believe in the wall of China existing.

Analogies can go both ways.
