Christopher Hitchens

I listened to a couple of Christopher Hitchens debates today. One was Hitchens’ debate with William Lane Craig (see here), and the other was Hitchens’ debate with Dinesh D’Souza (see here). I enjoyed Hitchens’ thoughtful meanderings about science and religion as well as his soothing British accent. It would have been awesome had Hitchens debated N.T. Wright before his death! Christopher Hitchens will definitely be missed.

Here are some good thoughts on the late Christopher Hitchens:
