That is EXACTLY how the burden of proof works. If you insist on something others don't belive, they don't need to prove your claim is false – but YOU need to prove your claim is true. What you are doing is called *SHIFTING* the burden of proof, a fallacy and dirty, manipulative apologetic tactic.

If I tell you I can fly by the power of my thoughts alone, and you don't believe me – who needs to prove what? No wonder the Atlantic has become what it is.
