Yes it has. You haven't, until this point, enquired about what that burden might be, so you're being a little presumptuous I think. Let's see...

No, it is not. Existence is a claim of material substance. God is immaterial. That's a pretty basic attribute. Christians believe that God exists. Belief through faith, an acceptance if information to be true, and to trust in that information: a rational process.
So if that's the basis of your claim, you've failed on a basic ignorance of the subject, which is what I thought.

I gave my opinion that religions haven't met the standards of evidence to meet the burden of proof.
How exactly is that not acceptable unless you don't understand the burden of proof...
Your burden was to show how theology failed, and it's still yours to prove.
What evidence of this non temporal being would you like to see? Please explain how that evidence could be acceptable to you, given your temporal limitations.
