You have to prove a thing does exist. Can you prove a Unicorn or Big Foot doesn't exist?

Not required to prove anything either way, except where it involves other people.
Where proof is deemed needed, it can be "proved true", "proved false", or "unable to prove at the moment". There should also be a degree of certainty included.
Most "famous" cryptids are unlikely to be proven to exist, as so much effort has gone into trying to find them already. but surprises do occasionally happen.

The evidence when subjected to a scrutiny can have the following outcomes:-Proved,not proved and/or disproved.It's not material whether something exists or not.Proof is required in both the situations.

It's like anything else people are going to believe what they want to regardless of facts or theories that are opposite.
Most science books are outdated w/i 5-10 yrs. for the last 30 yrs. But it doesn't prove science is fallible to the true believer in it.
The basic tenents of the Bible have held for centuries yet there are those who don't believe it was given by more intelligent life than our own.
It's all a case of the heart condition.

No. But in the physical world, an extreme lack of physical proof strongly suggests nonexistance. Apart from the physical world, such proof is impossible so an argument that tries to extend this reasoning outside the physical world is inappropriate.

It is not required for me to prove God to another person. So yes, what you are saying is true. You see, God only wants certain people. Not everybody like what many Christians might tell you. He isn't after everyone to believe in Him. He knows which ones He wants. Since He knows which ones He wants, He holds onto the proof of Him. Only those who He wants get the ABILITY to believe in Him. As the scripture says, " Whom He calls He enables."
So while all those who want proof are looking with their eyes and trying to 'see' proof, it is hidden from them. God gives the Holy Spirit to those who He wants to 'see' the proof.
As Jesus said:
44 "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets: 'They will all be taught by God.' "
( John 6 )
So the way to find God is not with the eyes, but with the heart through repentance. But the ones who repent to Him are those who God wants in the first place. Though I had to be humiliated greatly in order to finally do it. And so I was!

Ok, let's look at it from another angle. If you truly believe in something, and I mean TRULY, then for you it isn't even up for question. So if a person truly believes they can fly, jumping out of a plane without a parachute with all the belief in the world won't stop them going splat.
