I've literally never spoken to an atheist who believed they could prove that god doesn't exist. I'm not sure why theists cling to that strawman.
Well, aside from the factual and scientific debunking of literally hundreds of claims that are in the bible, no. And the burden of proof is on the person making the claim, not the one suggesting that all available data points to it not existing.
Take, for example, Scientology. PROVE to me that there weren't aliens that came to earth and dropped people or some shite into volcanoes and whatever else they believe. And that there isn't an alien overlord that rules the universe. I can make up anything I want to explain the universe and given your approach of "prove to me it doesn't exist" my made up explanation would be no less viable than yours.

Christian god, not generic god.

I'm fond of Russell's Teapot, as well.
You understand that you're aggressively shouting at an atheist, right?
