What?

That makes as much sense as me telling you:

Prove that your theism does not entail existential, moral, and/or rational nihilism.


Or:

Prove that your theism does not entail...


where one finishes the sentence with some random bullshit.

What is entailed by atheism is a lack of belief in a god.  What is entailed by theism is a belief in at least one god.  (One does not have to be a Christian to be a theist, or any other type of monotheist, as one could be a polytheist, pantheist, or any other kind of theist, if there are other kinds of theists.)

"A wise man ... proportions his belief to the evidence."
