Athiesm is a Faith?

Burden of proof is on the claimant.

By what authority do you claim this rule regarding burden of proof is on the claimant.

Common sense.

An invisible dragon god called Barry is destroying a planet 6000 light years away right now.

Disprove this please, right here:

And does the inability to prove something mean that you are wrong?

Of course not, but it doesn't mean we have to take you seriously. If you're going to make a positive objective statement of fact (God exists) then you'll need to give EVIDENCE to back it up.

how many innocent people are dead because the could not prove themselves innocent.

FALSE EQUIVOCATION

No doubt copy pasted from an apologist website. The old court of law burden of proof fallacy eh? Same old theists, same old tired arguments.

I will concede that there is a logic in saying that should I want to convince you of something i believe to be true I should be leading the conversation with some evidence but in reality i'm not trying to prove anything to you so there is no burden, rather I hope to stimulate thought and discussion.

As far as I can tell this is a flat out lie. You are here only to proselytize as I see it. If you're not here to 'convert' us to your way of thinking, you should respect that this forum, and the majority of its members, will only take claims that have evidence behind them seriously.

We reserve the right to criticize, make fun of, and out right ridicule your beliefs if we choose.

As far as proofs you have already constrained the proofs by relegating spiritual and emotional intelligence to a non acceptable proof so i respect your position on this and don't bother to bring this dimension to the discussion.

Ok, fine. But just to clarify, we relegate them below empirical evidence because they are nonsense terms that can define whatever they want depending on the person providing them (as evidence).

To sum up , I am not going to prove anything I claim and have no need to, but that does not make what i say false.

It also doesn't make it right or, further, worth listening to.

Oh, and to answer the OP, no, it's not.
