You can prove the tooth fairy doesn't exist by recording the 'myth' in action. It's very easy to unravel the mystery with a couple of strategically placed video cameras and a set of parents willing to upset a young child ;)
The case is not the same for beliefs, any of them. By definition 'faith' has no proof. Your claim that there are no gods, is still a claim, and one that requires substantiation, otherwise it is faith.
Atheists are not claiming that they just don't know. They are claiming that they KNOW that there are no gods. To understand that something doesn't exist you have to know the nature of what that something is. Do you KNOW what god is?- sorry, but the burden of proof is on those who are making the ridiculous claimsmonospaced

- That's because it's faith. And you are making a claim, so prove it .Morning_star
