Athesits don't need to prove anything!

Also lol.

Well, they do need to prove that God doesn't exist.

I'm sure others have already pointed this out but that's not how things work. You have to prove god exists, nobody has to prove that it doesn't. Just as you don't have to prove that there is no Flying Spaghetti Monster because the burden of proof is on those that make the claim. Therefore, god doesn't exist until you prove it does. I myself am an atheist because it is the most logical.

There is burden of proof on both sides; No piece of evidence can indefinitely prove that God does or doesn't exist.

Although, I don't understand the Big Bang, it doesn't make sense to me. How can nothing, at all, exist, and the Big Bang happen? Because if something existed before the Universe, than that was a part of the Universe, because the Universe contains everything that existed. Wouldn't it make more sense to say the Universe always existed (In the sense of time), and the Earth, Sun, Moon, etc. were formed over the course of billions of years? That's what I would say if I were an atheist.
