I learned a lot from his books. Although when he died some on here said they were glad he was dead. Idiots.

Really? I've done a search, but could not find any previous related threads.

This is probably my favourite debate. Hitch saves his greatest moment for the ending: 'I would have been proud to have Stephen as my children's babysitter, but if a man in religious robes turned up, I'd first call a taxi and then the police!'

But sadly not enough people in the world have heard his voice on the subject of religion. It needs to end.

Sure I liked Hitchens. A flamboyant intellectuall. I opposed his stance on the Iraqi War though. I'm a fan of Richard Dawkins too even if he's a bit dryer than Hitchens (was). Both of them can be seen as modern days enlightenment philosophers. I miss the great Norman Mailer too. Intellectualls seems to be a scarce commodity these days.
