Who does have standard of proof? Doesn't matter...nobody can meet it.

Atheism cannot talk about good, evil, and the human condition because it is not a unified belief, but rather simply a lack of belief in a higher power. There are as many varieties of belief amongst atheists as there are atheists. The discussion of such weighty matters falls to the individual in the case of an atheist.
