Indeed. Every point, every single utterance put to them is overridden with "Could you be wrong about everything you know?" yet they know beyond doubt that their god is eral because it has "revealed itself in a way that is undeniable" (or words to that effect) - but for some reason will not share what that means. Add to the mix the insistence that "logic is that which conforms to the mind of god and we can't know what logic is or how it works without god" plus "everyone knows god exists" and you realise you ran smack into an argument from insanity avalanche.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

"Fortunately, we do."
Doesn't that basically admit their argument is juvenile?

Bear in mind that the video was a promo for the Magic Sandwich Show that was uploaded by YouTuber and show regular C0nc0rdance, not the two characters featured in the vid. The caption to which you refer was a bit of promotional blurb intended in the sense of "James Randi won't dignify these juvenile arguments with a platform, but we (The MSS) don't mind exposing how juvenile they are to a wide audience".

Not at all, I can see how ambiguous my rather clumsy presentation was.
