Your interpretation is easily the most laughable skewing of logic that could have possibly been made out of this video. Congrats.
And no, the argument is the similar to the "god of the gaps" fallacy. I.e. simply because we have not determined a natural explanation for any phenomena does not mean you can jump in and conclude that god must have done it. There is simply no basis, as easily illustrated if you interchange one god for any other. "... therefore Krishna did it!" or "FSM!"
Again, if a rifle bullet goes through JFK in his motorcade, it is reasonable to conclude a human shot it at him. The identity of the shooter is irrelevant to that conclusion. Same for a phenomena that appears to have been planned by an intelligence. We don't have to identify that particular intelligent entity in order to recognize its involvement. You can exchange names for the shooter all you want, but it doesn't impact the conclusion that someone shot JFK. Same for changing the names of Gods.
However, all that does is shift back one step the position that needs to be substantiated. That's where "god of the gaps" applies, and my line: "simply because we have not determined a natural explanation for any phenomena does not [necessarily] mean you can jump in and conclude that god must have done it."

No! Apollo / Thor / Isis / Bastet / Loki / Yahweh / Balor / Susano did it.

So your argument is that, because we don't really know who killed John F. Kennedy, then John F. Kennedy wasn't ever killed.

Admittedly my example was rather poor. ^^

This also mean that our ignorance about how it began could also be cast on scientific theory since we all share the same ignorance
