Hi christians! On whom does the burden of proof lay: christian or atheist? [Spirituality & Religion]

Is it on christians to prove that god exists or is it on atheists to prove that god doesn't exist?
Explain your reasoning.

Christianity is about faith, rather than proof. But anyway, there's no proof. Maybe just show by example. Sadly many Christians don't do this, the opposite

@Literaturegirl: There is no proof for evolution either. Both belief systems are faith based.

@Celine: You're maybe in the US, where evolution is either taught badly or not at all. But not sure where you stand. Christianity is based upon faith, evolution upon evidence.

@Literaturegirl: Evolution is based on Faith as well. You are the one poorly educated. There is no tangible evidence for evolution merely a theory that taints the way you look at everything. An evolutionist could literally see God bring a new creation to life and the evolutionist would ascribe it to evolution.

@hippyjoe1955: You're like those people on Judge Judy who keep arguing even though they're not losing! ;)

@Celine: No you simply refuse to see it. Evolution is a fundamentalist religion.

@Celine: So you have no idea what life is. You simply pass of the dictionary definition of existence and call it life. You are indeed a say young woman.

@Celine: So in your own words describe life.
