  • You are in my Prayers

    I read your article, ''What I've learned from debating religious people around the world'' with fascination. To provide you with some insight I am what is commonly called an evangelical Christian, but could not be accurately labeled as a full Calvinist. I try my best to communicate in a manner that saves others from perdition and I likewise strive ...

  • Shame On You, Christopher Hitchens...

    I have been a fan and student of Mr. Hitchens for some time. I have followed his writing and have been moved by the level of intellect and wisdom he has been able to inject into the zeitgeist. Lately, however, the unflappable veneer of Mr. Hitchens has begun to fray. I am no fan of evangelical Christianity or conservative Christians in general. ...

  • Wow -- What a Rant by "Rage Boy" Chris Hitch Today

    I am perfectly content, really quite happy, about Obama's decision to have this mega-Church author, pastor, and cultural figure, Rick Warren, give the prayer at the January 20th Inauguration of our new United States President. I understand the apoplexy of ''Rage Boy'' Christopher Hitchens at the very thought of a prayer being said, let alone a ...

  • Vintage Hitchens destroys Gov Palin's remains

    Mr Hitchens warns us of his ire with the 2 year campaign in his 1st sentence which goes far from being soured gastric juices. A manufacturing chemist who works daily with the most toxic compounds will identiy the composition of Mr Hitchins's 1st sentence for us shortly. I wish to be enlightened. Sarah Palin's remains, political & earthly, ...

  • moral idiot much?

    From the article:It is a moral idiot who thinks that anti-Semitism is a threat only to Jews. The history of civilization demonstrates something rather different: Judaeophobia is an unfailing prognosis of barbarism and collapse, and the states and movements that promulgate it are doomed to suicide as well as homicide, as was demonstrated by ...

  • And McCain and Clinton?

    Unfortunately, Americans have been polled (Univ of Minn, et al) as distrusting atheists far more than any other minority group -- including Muslims and gays! Any presidential candidate that refuses to pander to this (and, perhaps, add a flag pin for good measure), will win in a landslide if Mr. Hitchens' and my votes are the only ones ...

  • The loss of Zimbabwe and South Africa to the Reds . . .

    . . . compares favorably with the loss of Afghanistan, Tibet, Hong Kong, and China to the Socialist/Communist ideologues elsewhere. Of course, the Anglo-American world Realpolitik has suffered it's share of losses to Right Wing Ideologue regimes, as well. Look no further than France, Italy, and Iran among others. We could even mention America in ...

  • Oh Hitchens, Off the Reservation Again, Are We?

    Hilary Clinton will make a great President, and it is only a matter of time now before that happens. I speak as the American who picked both her and Ronald Reagan for the job, so I think I know what I am talking about. Supporters of Obama and McCain will just have to get used to my choice of Hilary for President, just as I have had to accommodate ...

  • "Reason => Athesim" is not a reciprocal statement.

    I've read ''God is not great'' by Mr. Hitchens. In his book, he makes an argument, amongst other things, that theism defies reason and logic. You can make your own judgment about that. Regardless, even you hold that to be true, it is wrong to assume that the opposite statement is automatically true. In fact, I'll argue that it isn't. Therefore, ...

  • Oh, Lord. Hitchens is not an atheist after all!

    It's interesting to see the avowed atheist Hitchens appealing to the Deity: ''So, once you subtract the breathless rhetoric about 'surge' and 'momentum' and (oh, Lord) ''electability,''....
