Thank you. Christopher Hitchens put the words and coherance to my thoughts.
He enabled me to ‘come-out’ as an atheist, presenting powerful and common sense explanations to the views I held but could not express.
A rare and honourable man. A global conscience. .
i feel the same Pauline. The athiest convention is in my city this week and I cant help but feel that it is not the same without him. It is times like this that I wish we were wrong and that he could know how much we all miss him
I was conscious of a growing froideur between hitchens and Adams towards the end, and it was tedious to receive the Iraq war disclaimer every second time hitchens was mentioned.
