Nor do we have to prove a negative; the positive claim associated with it needs to be proved first.

If I see a bunch of people believing in something that they haven't been able to provide evidence for for over a millenia, that involves magic and talking animals and worldwide apocalyptic disasters, yet is not evidently true, how does that not qualify- from my perspective- as a delusion?

We're retreading old ground here.

That you think no evidence has been provided is reflective of your own ignorance, not of the work of theistic thinkers.

You need to familiarize yourself with the evidence.
