If this is all he has to motivate our concern, he has nothing.
The other big problem with this is the wrongheadedness of the "believing atheism is true" phrasing. What he is dodging is the use of the phrase "unless we believe in god ..". As if postulating a magic genie could possibly amount to a 'plausible' account of the universe.
A Vinny, you work so hard to amuse us. You're like our very own fool.
Edited to point out the thoroughness of Vin's construction here. Notice how he sets himself up with semi-expert status while asking for someone with even more expertise. In this way he can try to keep posters motivated to impress him. They must teach this in Apologetics 1A and in any accredited school of flim flammery.
