I took three and I understand what you're trying to say, but you're confused about it.
Theism does exist. There are people who believe in the existence of god, described by their definition. It is illogical, inconsistent and contradictory, but that just means they believe in something that is illogical, inconsistent and contradictory, not that they don't believe at all.
I get what your trying to say, but people don't think they believe, they just believe. And a claim that is illogical CAN be made, and it IS being made, hence atheism-the rejection of that claim.
Still dunno what you're on about with the burden of proof being on atheists tho.
