Go into detail about how they must have certainly been complicit in whatever crime God deemed them worthy of violent and painful death.
Unsuccessful at pulling your head out of the sand.
You make bare assertions and refuse to back them up. That's all anyone has to understand. From there on in they can gauge what their response to you should be.

Maelstrom is "being" a dick.

Burden of proof?
Oh sorry. My bad. It doesn't apply to you guys.
Carry on...
No bare assertions here, I gave you 3 bible versus that involved slaughtering everyone including the little children and another where they killed everyone except the little virgin girls, why would they do that i wonder? It was all approved by god. If he didn't like what they did, surely he would have done something.
And yes, the burden of proof is on us when we make positive claims that god is a dick, we have given evidence for these claims, refute it.
But maybe you do not understand the burden of proof. It is on you when you claim that a god exists, we simply don't believe your claim. We don't need any evidence ourselves to disbelieve your claim, because you do not have any evidence to back up your claim. So the next time someone asks you to prove god exists, please do not reply 'prove that he doesn't'
