I watched the video and didn't see any evidence of God. Just assumptions since we don't completely understand how it all began. This is textbook "god of the gaps" theory. Kinda like people used to think the sun was being carried across the sky by a chariot until we learned it wasn't (and which was also driven by religion).
Saying, "we don't know, so it had to be God," is both intellectual laziness and convenient.
You are talking to a massive amount of people on this forum who have traveled far past the point of doubt you are possibly speaking of. We have, individually had such an interpersonal relationship with God we are past any point of doubt. We have sought - and He has answered in ways that leave us with no doubt, and often tangible evidence of His existence. Once that divine assurance is secured, we are blessed with the opportunity to grow in our knowledge of him. No one can understand all the ways of God, but the journey we are on is about our efforts to ponder upon Him and reflect back onto mankind a similitude of His Image. There is not a droplet of intellectual laziness involved in this process.
You're wrong...factual experiences are 'proofs'. They are the ultimate acceptable metric, depending on whose measuring stick you're using. Don't decry our system as inferior to your known system. Perhaps that;s what this all boils down to. If the science is wrong -- just how wrong is it, all the way down to it's foundation wrong? I personally no longer accept scientism as facts.

That's fine, but implying the video proves God is inaccurate.
Personal experiences aren't proof to others, either. If that were an acceptable metric, Elvis is alive and Bigfoot is real.

You're hallucinating.
