But I have to agree with Julie.....he was rather distracting because he was pretty good looking! (And I realize that I am an old fart, but cute is still cute.)

(73 posts)and frigteningly rigid. It's as if, as the previous commenter here just said, they really really think he would be struck down by lightening. They use their god figure to attempt to inspire fear in the presenter, (not without missing the meaning of half the intended satire of the Biblical stories of a god figure).
I'm so glad no one on DU is such a rigid believer in such a powerful god figure, nor misses the satire some of us post here. ( )

Yes, I agree.
I think he is also a resident of Los Angeles, and engaged in the film industry, perhaps often as an extra or a "one-liner" on some TV series, or engaged in the film and TV industry as a "production assistant" as many dozens of young men are.
He has been in the L.A. area for at least 5, maybe more years, and works in Hollywood. You might actually spot him in some TV series or film.
He has a Youtube channel, but, alas, no recent videos, although he is well-known to the atheist Youtube community.
Researching his name and location... maybe the NSA will help me out here with their data.
He has several other great Youtube videos, all over a year old, well worth a few minutes of your time. I think he's a former Philosophy student somewhere, he knows a bit more than this excellent example of satire from him. He has obviously done some advanced study beyond just high school.
From his Twitter account:

Two ways you might know me: I work on a soap opera, and I run a YouTube channel centered around religion and skepticism. Oh, and I went to high school with you.
