That isn't how the burden of proof works. Whoever makes the absurd claim gets to back it up. The rest of us get to ignore it until they do. If this weren't true you'd spend your life trying to disprove the thousands of religions that you don't believe in.
So you get to provide the evidence for this afterlife of yours. Have fun with that.
From a purely philosophical standpoint, Hell is the sort of moral abomination that causes real difficulties for anybody trying to pass off an all-loving God and Heaven is so ill-conceived as to be distinguishable from Hell only by the finest forensic examination.
