Burden Of Proof



Levels Of Required Proof 

X marks the spot: Evidence beyond any doubt based on a reason 





Guilty only if proven beyond a reasonable doubt





Burden Of  Proof aka (Absolute Certainty)



Burden Of Proof: The person making the claim bears the burden

One has to prove his claim with absolute certainty



LAW: Burden Of Proof


Scale


Burden Of Proof: Decision



Plaintiff does not have enough evidence to support his case: Defendant wins

Examples 

1. If one says he is a unicorn the Burden Of Proof solely rests on him


You are right only when you prove it 

Claims otherwise are Dud if one cannot prove it


Dud

Dud if you cannot bear the burden of the claim





Eg 2: Corpus Delicti

You have to prove that person charged with the crime is responsible for the crime




Eg 3: Religion



Gnostic Theist: Search for God and find him 

Strong Theist: I do not question the existence of God, I know he exists



Religious Logic: You cannot prove that i dont have an apple




Atheist knows that Burden Of Proof lies on Religion

Logic without evidence does not qualify as Burden Of Proof



It is very rare to see Darth Vader showing his Ugly Face to Mankind



Only after seeing Vader one can accept the Burden Of Proof Religion provides



Darth Vader chokes people with Religion



Example 4:  Disease


Disease: Specificity of a test rules in Disease

HIV

Trichomonas Vaginalis





Specificity: A positive test with high specificity rules in pathology

Burden Of Proof lies upon the specificity of Test


Specificity of Test identifies those without the Disease
