Just because I decide to believe in the God of Anal sphincters and you can't damn well disprove his existence does not mean he does so.

"

Kyle, you have completely misread, or misunderstood what I posted - or both. I actually said that:
"Atheist's cannot prove that God does
not exist" -- not, as you misquote, that "the non religious" has to "prove God
exists".
Further; your statement;
"
The burden of proof is not on the non religious to prove God exists but nice try."
is totally misleading and simply not true, because, 'Burden of Proof' by definition:
'It is a fundamental principle of English law that a litigant bears the burden (or “onus”) of proof in respect of the propositions it asserts to prove its claim. The burden of proof does not lie with the person who denies the allegation'.
Therefore, 'Burden of Proof' actually falls squarely upon the shoulders of the claimant - whether he be a 'believer' claiming that God exists, or an Atheist claiming that God does not exist.
