Question is heretical.

I realize that this isn't quite the subforum, but there are also multiple issues with the second video, which professes to contain a proof of god. The central one relates to off-hand dismissal of the idea that everything could come from nothing.
1. There is no reason to presume that everything can't come from nothing. If we are referring to true nothingness then we are referring to a situation where our laws of logical deduction and induction cannot be applied. Conditional on this, attempting to frame a logical argument with regards to nothingness is, itself, illogical.
2. The pronouncement that everything can't come from nothing is based on an observation of events (objects) inside our universe (a set). There is no reason that the set need possess the same characteristic as our universe. Thus his attempts to generalize the characteristics of objects to their set is illogical.
Being as the rest of the argument is predicated on this dismissal, which is illogical, the rest of his argument fails to hold.
The "something from nothing" argument gets trotted out all the time.
I've seen this rebuttal. It isn't something from nothing. It's nothing from nothing. The sum of all the energy in the universe, negative and positive, it equates to zero. And, per Einstein, energy and mass are interchangeable.
I don't remember where the net zero came from, maybe Stephen Hawking's popular book, so I can't vouch for its validity but it sounds plausible if you accept e=mc^2.
