>Interesting presentation but he makes a mistake right at the end. His conclusion that God is imaginary because of unanswered prayers is not supported. It could be that he exists but is simply not listening, or can't hear you for whatever reason, or has chosen to do nothing, or any other number of possible arguments. You cannot prove a negative.

Oh, I didn't really listen to the end. I don't have the patience for this sales pitch technique whereas the guy repeats the same thing over and over just because most of the audience is incapable or unwilling to get it the first time. If that's the conclusion, the guy is just out of his depth. God is construed outside of logic, and can't be proven or disproven, it's just not a logical matter. The guy has long ago decided he's not interested in logic, proof etc (or is that the job security technique of the guys whose livelihood depends on the mystique - the effect is the same). Take it or disbelieve it, that's the logical choice, i.e. choose between non-logic or logic.

I agree with the author of the clip only as far as his statement about power of prayer goes. Anything beyond that could be a simple non-sequitur.
