...BECAUSE ATHEISM DOESN'T SAY GOD DOESN'T EXIST!In one sense Atheism DOES make a "positive claim" in that it "denies the existence of God". If the burden of proof rests on the shoulders of those who make the claim then I say there IS a burden of proof on you....... the burden of the proof that God does NOT exist. After all Ahteists ARE making the claim that God does NOT exist. Why should they NOT be pressured to prove THEIR claim?
I believe I have repeated that 10 times in this damn thread.
