then you open the door for others to piggy-back on that assumption, and describe a slightly or even radically different path, which you absolutely cannot disprove.

As an atheist, this is where I stand apart; I don't assert there's a path, let alone a destination. Want me to assume it? I refuse, burden of proof is on the one that makes the claim, so you must prove it.
