Atheists, ever the intellectual bunch, never seem to run out of weird and wonderful ways to try to dodge accountability for their own claims. For example, how do you defend the claim "there is no God"? Atheists think they have found the answer: You don't have to! You just say "you can't prove a negative", and suddenly the burden of proof is shifted.
This is a very silly claim, for multiple reasons, the first being yes, you absolutely can prove a negative. For example, let us take the claim "there is no money in my wallet". In order to prove there is no money in my wallet, all I would have to do is take out my wallet, open it and show you the inside of my wallet. Similarly, I could tell you that the square root of 9 is not 2, a negative claim I can prove by showing you that the square root of 9 is actually 3. I can prove my car is not yellow by showing you a picture of my black car. So you can prove a negative.
But more absurd is the fact that an inability to prove something does not require that one must therefore accept it. Most Christians will admit that we cannot prove God exists. We can give evidence that removes all reasonable doubt, but removing unreasonable doubt is a lot harder. God is not a substance; we cannot bottle Him. God is not an equation; we cannot solve Him. God is invisible; we cannot see Him. God is not a force; we cannot measure Him. God has free will; we cannot predict* or control Him. Nothing can ultimately be done that can indisputably demonstrate the existence of God just because His specific nature prevents us from doing so, and yet no atheist would accept "you can't prove God" as a reason to believe in God without evidence.
Why, then, should any sane individual be expected to accept "you can't prove a negative" as a reason to reject Him? One can just as easily say "there is no God" as "there is no good reason to reject God". In fact, to demonstrate this, I am going to do exactly that. Dear atheists, put your money where your mouths are; here is a negative claim. There is absolutely no reason any human being on this planet should ever reject Christianity. I cannot prove this negative, and as you insist that the inability to prove a negative is sufficient reason to accept it, logic dictates that you must swiftly repent and be baptised.
*There is an exception in that God, being perfect, will not violate His own perfect nature, and so we can predict that God will not suddenly transform every Bible in the world into an apologetic work for Islam, or suddenly shrink the sun to the size of a tennis ball.
