While Harris is addressing Christianity, this also applies to Muslims and Jews as well because of the "all powerful" and "all loving" and "all seeing" attributes. So please try if you wish to justify a counter to Sam Harris's argument.
I didn't see the video, but going by your explanation, it seems he provides the reason for rejecting the Abrahamic god - not "all" gods.
No, I do mean all gods. Why would a super hero not save you when it could. It would either be inept or malicious. The concept of any god is broken for this very reason.
