Q&A: Christopher Hitchens

The only sane people in this world are those promoting a world without labels and a world where thoughts are not crimes. Which leaves about 1 % of us.

He was an insufferable stuck up cerebral narcissist. Just as religion has its dogmatic extremists who hate, Hitch represented those with an arrogant closed mind on the atheist spectrum who also hate.

Miss you Hitch!

If only Kissinger had died when Hitchens did, and Christopher was the one still with us today...

His knowledge always impresses me !.. when an interviewer or fellow panellist discusses a little known religion or religious person, Christoher Hitchens is always able to provide a comprehensive and in-depth reply.. quite amazing!

Too bad he never had a cooking show "Hitchens in your Kitchens"

Never heard Mr Hitchens say man that joint was great would love to have heard listen to him while stooned all the time brilliant man

Yeah dude you didn’t have 18 months left never mind 28 more years. I hope smoking those nasty cigarettes was worth it you knucklehead.

Crazy to think when ye says "maybe its too early to write my memoir, but you can't wait until it's too late" that he would sadly die only 2 years later 😢

I like Hitchens, but he was completely wrong about Iraq. Nation building and attempting to establish republics in the Middle East is a fools errand.

I was drafted 4 days after i was sworn in as a citizen.

I enjoy a lot in listening Cristopher Hitchens speech

He was truly a guy you hated to love or loved to hate. Quite a free thinker and unapologetic in his opinions. Didn't agree with his atheism or his limited view on understanding God. But most agnostics (which atheists are in real life) equate religion with faith - which it is not. Outside of that debate, I kind of admired his conservative-liberal dichotomy. He was practical in many ways, and didn't suffer the ideological constraints of most intellectuals, who are bound to untenable theories and political association. That's not to say he wasn't ideological - he definitely was, but he seemed to be the type to adapt to given circumstances. He definitely didn't play political favorites, and was just as critical of one party as another.

Some of his interviews seem dated but there is still a sense of genuine conviction, and like he said, he tried never to pander to the crowd or cause controversy for its own sake.

If McCain was too old and exhausted to be voted for as president I can only imagine the roast he would have cooked up for Biden lol

Shelter in majority, love that.

He looked great for 60, like he was mid 40a

What a brilliant man

He seems to be a man at ease if not peace with who he is/was.

-Marc Thiessen dont get a point by saying if you dont try the torture on you than its effective . Its a very childish way of thinking . Torture is like lasagna its effectiv with many layers of psychological and physical damages .Torutrue is not necessarly hurting someone directly .
