If someone claims that there is a God they have the burden of proving that God exists right
But doesn't someone who does a counter claim of there is no god also have the burden of proving that God doesn't exist?
Because both parties are claiming something
One claims God does exist
The other claims God doesn't exist
in the end they are both claiming something so doesn't the burden of proof lie with both parties

Which was my point in my answer to your question. It's a never ending chain of who's proof it is.

A person who claims that god does not exist should expect to be called on to provide evidence. A person who does not believe in god need not provide evidence, because this is not a claim that god does not exist. Those who claim that god exists should be prepared to provide evidence, but that would be a cold day in hell.

Atheists are rarely gnostic. Few take the claim that God does not exist.
There is an invisible pink unicorn on your shoulder. Do you claim that it does not exist? Prove it. (note: it is also intangible, omnipotent, and has all the powers of descarte's demon).

The burden of proof lays wih the unbelievers, because they don't even have an answer to how they got here, I got here by seeing there is a God that created all things.

I "claim" that I don't believe in God. I have no need to prove my non-belief.
