Safe Mode: On
The Best Of Christopher Hitchens

"Religion looks forward to the destruction of the world…. Perhaps half aware that its unsupported arguments are not entirely persuasive, and perhaps uneasy about its own greedy accumulation of temporal power and wealth, religion has never ceased to proclaim the Apocalypse and the day of judgment"

Christopher Hitchens -


(13 April 1949 – 15 December 2011)

  • Love this man's words.
    Truer "gospel" was never spoken or written....
    Well, if it was, we can be sure some "man of faith" burned or destroyed it and it's issuers in the name of some imaginary god.
    Yes, of that we can be assured.

    • @michael567 we need to stop treating faith as a virtue, and ridicule those who claim it so. belief with out reason, is nothing to be proud of. i await for an era where faith is no more, and reason and logic is the norm.

      Me, you, and a hundred million other enlightened mammals, my friend.
      Too bad there's still BILLIONS that disagree and think "faith" is something to be admired instead of ridiculed as, well, as nothing less than credulously fucking stupid, really.


      Cheers.

  • Humankind suffered a great loss when this man died. He was an island of reason in a sea of unreason. Rest in Peace Christopher.

  • Not believing in Hell doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I would love to see him scream for mercy when Satan has his stick up his ass. Scream little piggy!!

  • he is burning in hell now, a nonconsuming fire that he cannot escape. what i find almost unbelievable is that atheists condemn their own children to an eternity in hell over something they are not 100% sure, that GOD does not exist! it is incredible to me that they would put their own children whom they love and send them to hell on a red carpet. yet here they talk about being "progressive"!! really?? the ONLY thing that atheists can truely say without lying or making up some fantasy, More..

    • @-shauna- ignorance is blissful. maybe thats the feeling you are talking about?
      the Vatican has already stated that hell does not exist.
      the only thing atheists have to loose on death is their lives.
      what saddens me is how people of faith waste their lives trying to achieve a place thats as far as science and reality is concerned, does not exist.
      why should you care about other people and what they may or may not believe? didn't your god create them as they should be? then god created them as su More..
