It's certainly not.

If your plan is to demonstrate we have no reason, how can you do that without using our reason to do it? And if you succeed, you have no tools left to demonstrate anything at all.

So... At best you've just described the problem of solipsism again. I'm all too well aware of it, but it's not an argument for... whatever this guy is trying to prove, I have no idea.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
