Shockofgod
A youtube user infamous for his atheism bashing and bullying, strong christian conservative views, motorcycle riding and his frequent use of conservapedia as a legitimate source of information. He claims to have the question which is supposedly making atheists reconsider their beliefs. This question is "what proof and evidence can you provide that atheism is accurate and correct?" He has proposed many times that no one is able to answer this question when in reality hundreds of atheists already have.
According to conservapedia Shockofgod is the greatest youtube evangelist ever... BULLLLLLLLLLLLSHIIIIIIIIIT
Shockofgod
A far-right evangelical Christian YouTuber who is notorious for his motorcycle-humping, incoherent babbling, empty legal threats against his "debate" opponents, insulting his opponents instead of actually backing up his claims in a debate, his love for Conservapedia, and most of all, his unhealthy obsession with atheism. He claims to have "evidence" to prove that atheism is wrong, but in reality, all he does is shout the exact same argument again and again: the Reversed Burden of Proof.
Typical Shockofgod "debate"
Shockofgod: (having a Shock-gasm) "THERE IS NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE THAT ATHEISM IS TRUE AND CORRECT! THERE IS NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE THAT ATHEISM IS TRUE AND CORRECT! THERE IS NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE THAT ATHEISM IS TRUE AND CORRECT! THERE IS NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE THAT ATHEISM IS TRUE AND CORRECT! THERE IS NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE THAT ATHEISM IS TRUE AND CORRECT! THERE IS NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE THAT ATHEISM IS TRUE AND CORRECT! THERE IS NO PROOF OR EVIDENCE THAT ATHEISM IS TRUE AND CORRECT!"
Opponent (who uses common sense): I'm sorry Shock, but that's not how burden of proof works. You can't prove a neg-
Shock: FATTY! Your argument is invalid, you stupid, ugly, cowardly commie! I declare VICTORY. (boots opponent off the mic)
(Opponent rejoins) I'm back.
Shock: How DARE you hack back into my debate room?! I WILL SUE YOU!!!!
Opponent: Yeah, right.

"Johnny is suffering from Shockofgod Syndrome because he demonstrates a complete lack of understanding regarding X, Y, and Z propositions."
"Give proof and evidence that atheism is accurate and correct." This is Shockofgod's basic challenge to all atheists. The question itself is full of tautologies, a very basic misunderstanding of what atheism actually is, and no understanding of the burden of proof. Dozens of atheists have posted responses to his question detailing the problems with the question itself. Instead of answering the objections to his own question, Shockofgod simply ignores these objections, declares victory, and goes home, à la George Bush II.
The only answer atheists have been able to wring out of him, so far, was in the form of a twisted use of the burden of proof where he stated that the burden is on the atheist because Christians outnumber atheists, which may also be a case of argumentum ad populum.
