Title: Hitchens on Cancer and Atheism
Post by: Slim Pickens on August 09, 2010, 09:36:45 PM

I had no idea that Christopher Hitchens was so ill.  I could listen to him talking all day long.  I hope he's around for a few more years yet...

I agree with Hitchens about atheism, but he's always struck me as a little too precious, like a poor man's Gore Vidal…I don't think he's as clever as he believes himself to be.

As Salman Rushdie wrote today, 'A great voice falls silent.'

Christopher Hitchens (1949-2011)
