Support for a friend
Hi there, this is my first post here but I was wondering if any of you could offer some advice. I have a friend who lately tells me he has found christ, god etc after all of this time of knowing him, I thought he was a little bit more critical in his thinking but he has seemed to be absorbed all of a sudden. I have tried talking on both a critical level and sympathetic level as I hate to think of any of my friends to lose their heads in make believe. Here is a link to one his videos on youtube anyway. You'll probably find it as I did, uncomfortable, a tad bit awkward and feeding the fearful:

He also believes science is a form of religion which again, is uncomfortable and without sounding patronising, makes him sound quite uneducated.

If any of you out there can offer him direct advice or even some critical comments via his youtube, that would be great. I know he reads them and I can only hope he steps off Noah's Ark after reading them.

Thanks a lot and I appreciate any advice that is given.
