I don't want to pick on you but it's a good example.

The burden of proof is on the one making the positive claim, not those
who doubt the claim due to lack of evidence.

If I claim there is an invisible pink unicorn in my garage that directs
the universe and farts rainbows I hope you wouldn't just believe it.



Of course not. That's ridiculous. Everyone knows that pink unicorns
fart in monochrome.
