"The burden of proof lies on religion. If you propose the existence of something, you must follow the scientific method in defense of its existence. Otherwise, I have no reason to listen to you." Oh you paragons of virtue! Perhaps it's time for all of us to contemplate the perfection of the humble banana, and then eat it. The burden of proving the existence of God lies on religion, and I agree with this statement made by an anonymous atheist. I think the major problem with mainstream organized religious orthodoxy is they really give a damn what people who aren't them think, and seriously prefer you think like they do so you can find whatever path they think you need to be on, otherwise, "they have no reason to listen to you." Atheists and theists have no reason to listen to each other, and why should they? Hypocrisy runs deep in both camps. There are few, if any, "paragons of virtue" to be found among the self-proclaimed righteous, and it has been correctly stated that we all fall short of the mark.
