I think it's more the idea that there is no God is infinitely more plausible than the idea that there is one. The fact that Atheists go "OMG YOU HAVE NO PROOF LOL" is more due to the fact that it is the person claiming that something exists that should provide the proof rather than the other way around.

Imagine it as an experiment. You have a hypothesis and a null hypothesis. The hypothesis is God exists, the null hypothesis must therefore be that God does not exist. If you cannot prove your hypothesis you must take the null hypothesis as being true.
