Also, The burden of proof has shifted to skeptics of an afterlife.
No it hasn't.
It's up to you to prove there is an afterlife, not for us to prove there isn't one.
That's like trying to prove there isn't a tooth fairy. Or an easter bunny. Can you prove those things don't exist?
Oh, the one question that all physicist hate. Can you prove it doesnt exist?
This is really what it all boils down to. Although they are skeptical, there is no verifiable proof that none of this exists. Sad but true.
Aristotle alone added the three miracles of cosmogony, where he explains
cause sui or "cause unto itself." It explains that the cosmos was set into motion by an unmoved mover. He explains that since motion must be eternal and must never fail, there must be some eternal first mover. This unmoved mover has no potential to change, only to change other things and thus must be a being of pure thought unchanged by the rest of the world.
Not that he himself believed in this miracle, but it was necessary for the list to be complete.
