Non-existence is the null hypothesis. If there's no evidence of a thing then it doesn't even enter into the picture until someone claims that it DOES exist.

Their burden of proof.-> I know it is very difficult to prove a negative (your position). Their position should be less difficult.-I have neither need of nor interest proof of my position. (Proof has little place in this world outside mathematics.)
