Even if it did, doesn't indicate a god.
Even if it did, doesn't indicate any particular god.
Also, its premises are bullshit.
So all in all, 0/10.
The only charitable way to interpret it is as a first step in a bigger chain of argument.
Part one being to prove the existence of a first/final cause (sometimes defined as an explanation) then part two is to prove the first/final cause is identical to a God. Part three would be to prove that God is identical to the Christian God. This is all one tall order and hard to pull off.
