Why do theist insist that Atheist prove a god DOESN'T exist?
- We told them to prove their fantasy exists so with their third grade mentality, they think saying - prove god does not exist - is actually intelligent.

No, that is not proof.
But yes, the burden of proof lies with the person making the claim.

You are correct but because theists have no evidence for heir claims they try to shift the onus on proof onto atheists.

I have seen the Holy Spirit. God is personal. If your mind wasn't blind maybe you could see it like billions of people have.

But the word a-theism means it lies on you.

You claim that God does not exist because there is no evidence of His existence
this must mean you have proof He does not exists because you would hold no belief that God does not exists, without evidence....would you
So we keep looking for you to provide this illusive truth
Did Pluto exist before we could see it?

They do not know how to tell fiction and reality apart.
If they knew, they probably would not be theists.

They're REALLY bad at logic and they KNOW they cannot prove their God exists so they try to shift the burden of proof. It's the only recourse they have. They'll jump through all kinds of hoops to try to say it's not a burden of proof fallacy too even though it 100% is. Consider if they used that same "logic" anywhere else in normal society:
"I don't own a Ferrari"
"Oh yeah, PROVE IT!"
"Uh... what?"
"Vampires don't exist"
"Oh yeah, PROVE IT!"
"Uh... what?"
"I am not telepathically communicating with aliens in the Orion Nebula"
"Oh yeah, PROVE IT!"
"Uh... what?"

No need to prove anything. God has shown sufficient to all.
Those that deny simply don't want God.

A last desperate attempt to bolster their dwindling faith.
They're like children in a playground, if you ask them for proof their only reply is "no, you prove it".
