No. Everyone who believes into something that is based solely to an human written book proof-wise is dumb if you ask me.
That fact that you see it so simply is pretty strong evidence of being dumb.

The book did nothing more than provide the system. The faith of individuals comes from many factors other than said book.

Quite concise. The only problem I have is at the very beginning: "In fact, I think for some people, believing in a false god - and this one is false because they all are - can be quite therapeutic." (0:12)
I think that this is unnecessary because it invites ad hominem arguments and is no prerequisite for his argumentation.

Agreed. I think its more a display of the man's total lack of character than anything else.

Not that I think he's necessarily wrong ... but I have little tolerance for anyone with such a closed mind, especially when combined with condescension.
