Existence of God(s)

I often see how they claim to know of the existence or non-existence of god/gods/goddesses. Theists claim proof in faith, scriptures or spiritual experience. Atheists often say lack of evidence negates the claim but as trying to prove non-existence I see that as a claim to that needs evidence. A negation of a negative is a plus and a negation of the positive is a minus. A rational thinking human being wouldn't side with any side and wouldnt claim such biased statements as: "the burden of proof doesnt apply to atheists". Well atheists CLAIM the non-existence of deities, so there IS the burden of proof. If they said that they didn't need proof, then it is just opinion and not fact. Everyone is entitled to their opinion but never EVER should an opinion be rendered as a fact.

But where I am an agnostic theist, I also share the opinions of strong agnostics and apathetic agnostics. Strong agnosticism = "I do not know if deities exist or not, neither do you." Apathetic agnosticism = "No proof for or against, no one is right. But I could care less if they exist or not."

How do you feel about it?

PS: I dont want any "God doesnt exist is fact due to no evidence" because you cannot bring the evidence yourself against it as both sides are at the current time just opinions.
