Atheism is not a positive claim, the burden of proof is always on the positive claim. You must prove your position before you can criticise anybody of not holding it. There is an equal amount of proof for evolution as there is for gravity and the lack of proof for a god makes it less likely than lizards controlling our society. Atheism is a lack of belief and can therefore only provide proof that the position it opposes is not true.

@gilgamesh161, Atheism is a negative claim, the burden of proof is always on that too. You must prove your position before you can criticise anybody of not holding it. Evolution does not refute God and is not atheism. Atheism is a belief and must therefore provide proof that the postion it opposes is not true. No atheist can do that.
