Actually, while I do not know for sure what the creators of this video were thinking when they made it, I think the video was intended as a thinly disguised slap at Christianity and the bible by portraying God as arbitrary, self-centered and easily flustered by simple questions. This video strikes me more as a parody of christian fundamentalism than a warning to atheists.

You really take that as being a pro-christian video? If I've ever seen something mocking religion it's that video.

It's obviously a mockery of Christianity. I did not enjoy that at all. We are no better than the next guy so we simply need to pray for the person who made the video.

This video was created by a man named Edward Current who I discovered has a number of other videos on YouTube. Rev, if you have any doubt that "An atheist meets god" is not a mockery of Christianity, check out some of Edward Current's other work on YouTube.

Hi Nick 76,

So then, who is the person with the weakness? Is it the believer or is it the atheist?
