You completely missed the point of that video. He did not convert using the power of God. He "converted" using a trick. He just proved how vulnerable people are to the power of suggestion, and how easy it is to trick people into believing. That's what organized religions have been doing forever. That video example completely defeats your argument.

Just to burst your bubble...
Derren Brown is an Atheist, he is a mentalist, a magician. Here he demonstraits how the power of suggestion can influence people to belive in a god. There is no god in that video, just psychology and hypnosis. He is simply debunking of what other " god messengers" have done by doing the same things on what they do. The only thing is that he admits he is fake. I have read some of his books and can do these mind tricks myself, and i'm only 15.
They are all tricks, trust me.

That's not by the power of God, do you even know who Derren Brown is? He also makes people believe in ghosts and can manage to steal from people without them noticing. He's a magician and an illusionist. He isn't a God-botherer and is using his OWN powers to 'convert' them, not Gods.

The video seems to suggest it has more to do with psychology than actual supernatural powers. The very mans who's doing the "instant conversions" admits he's a "charlatan" who's doing an experiment.

I don't think you paid attention. The british guy is poking fun at christians and religion in general. It is a hoax, a con, a joke. Pay attention

Atheists are not compelled to explain anything on YouTube. Atheists are not compelled to explain anything at all. Atheists are just people who do not believe in God.
Did you actually pay attention to what was being done in the video?
