How reasonable does this seem to you?

I've just found this vid on youtube

(part 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rqUsC2KsiI&feature...

(part 2)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qmcOG-na4E&feature...

and, whilst it's quite basic, it strikes me as a very intelligent way of answering a question that's asked on here quite often. I'm interested in getting responses from both theists and atheists alike. Ie: atheists: Do any of these things ring true for you, would they help to convince you of a religious truth? And theists: aren't these things fair enough 'proofs' to expect from a religion?

The vid takes about 16 mins all together.

Update:

@ revelution, just take a look at hilary's post, your point - proven!

Update 2:

@ drew, OK I just read all of that. Now there's about half an hour of my life I'm never going to see again, thanx! Firstly modern times? Did you actually read any of that yourself? Modern times? Really? Secondly I personally don't hold with the idea that proof of prophecy as proof of a religions truth. That was something that the creator of those videos would like for himself. To me proof of an effect is not proof of a separate cause. I might not agree with some of the suggestions this guy made but I do respect his openness to at least answer the question. Finally most of these prophecies don't actually fit within the requirements that Fighting Atheist suggested. They are both vague and open to multiple interpretation. Finally I'd just like to quote something form this site to show my current disregard for it's claims.

(With regards to the existence of Jesus)

"He never existed- disproved even by Encyclopedia Britannica", Like the encyclopedia is the be all and end all of an argument!

    I think these videos are great, they raise some very good points and I think most of the requests he makes for information required to believe are very reasonable.

    I can't see them going down well with Christians as it probably raises too many uncomfortable issues they don't like to discuss.

    That was boring...

    I only saw about 2 minutes of it. It's a pure waste of my time. I'm not Atheist. LOL.
