Shifting the burden of proof (a fallacy) is requiring the contrary view point to be proven in order to prove the original claim false. In our conversation, the original claim is that God killed innocent children.
Oh, I see, so it wasn't that the flood ever actually happened in the first place. Well, I don't see how he could have killed children in the flood if there was no flood. Good thing no one is claiming that the flood actually ever happened. Wouldn't it be awful if they had to prove that claim?
