I don't mean to beat the proverbial dead horse, but I want to explain in more detail what the Burden of Proof (BoP) is, and why it matters. Every opinion or belief has a reason, even if you're not aware of it. You may be right, but if you can't prove it, its not justified. The BoP is a way of getting people to believe you. Now, if you don't care if someone believes you, then fine. You can skip reading this. But, if you do want people to believe you, then this is the best way to do it.
