It has to be experienced to fully understand and can be experienced by anyone. I have several friends who were Agnostic and Atheist who have seen this for themselves and probably would describe it the best.
I have not watched the video and need not watch the video. I understand the content and the questions. You can question God all you want, I have many times and still do and will until I die. God does not fear your questions nor cater to the whims and thoughts of man.
As the Bible says in James 4:14 "What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes."
I will agree with you that religion is a dangerous thing. However real Christianity has nothing do do with religion but a relationship. The pharisees who had Jesus executed were very religious people.

Just to get this out there, I DO think religion is a dangerous thing, yes, but I do 'believe' in a god force, not A God. I think we are god-manifestation in a physical plane of existence, here to create, live life, and to evolve ourselves to a higher intelligence.
The bible is nothing more than a book of plagiarized work from a quite large time frame thrown into one and changed and raped of meaning to fit the 'times'. You take the present day bible and then look at the old cauldron bible, 20,000+ differences between the two. Well if the bible is the word of God, then why has the 'pure' word been changed so many times?
I have quite a few christian friends, it makes me sick about the stuff they talk about... going to hell, sins, yada yada, and forfeiting their lives to the 'plan of God'. Sitting in church once a week, dressings nice, throwing money at the collector plate, and doing for a MERE couple hours a week and they think they are golden to go to heaven with Jesus. jesus christ.
