Burden of proof (or onus probandi in Latin) is the obligation on somebody presenting a new idea (a claim) to provide evidence to support its truth (a warrant). Once evidence has been presented, it is up to any opposing "side" to prove the evidence presented is not adequate. Burdens of proof are key to having logically valid statements: if claims were accepted without warrants, then every claim could simultaneously be claimed to be true.
Oh, you can't just make shit up and expect it to be accepted as God's honest truth?

The insane insect primitive does, so why not? In fact, it's your job to prove her WRONG once she makes an assertion.
