Great to see the big change We are doing to the community congratulations to all of You. Since I was a Kid I have felt this felling that we all create our own God in our Minds and never was agree with none of the others but my own, which is Nothing. George Pella.

@Maddie
I'm glad that you're proud. Everyone should be proud of something. You write: Christianity is about as grace and knowing that someone loves you so much they gave it all. You use the word 'knowing'. How do you know that this is true, I wonder. Good to see that Christopher is still able to keep up the Socratic tradition of corrupting the minds of the youth. ^_^

Hitchens will be remembered fondly by so many around the world
Seeing Christopher Hitchens soldiering on, I wonder where he gets the energy. He's a treasure for the global atheist and freethinking community. So sad that his health is declining, but great to see his fighting spirit is still there.

A risk
To theist, there is a God and they used their money to build church and their energy to worship. But this idea of God goes only to like parts of the world. We atheist don't really feel that godly present nor are we able to understand this being called God, which totally seemed to be as real as imagination.To atheist this is called a waste of money and energy. If God truly doesn't exist and we use the money that was wasted on religious subject, this could be better world than it is now.

Inspiration
Christopher Hitchens is undoubtedly one of the greatest minds of the last 50 years. A heart of gold and an inspiration to every generation. Let his life continue; he will live on forever in our memories, our minds and, of course, on our bookshelves.

Free Thought
Can a thought in reaction to other forms of thought, or bent on disproving or excluding any idea, actually be free? It is defined by that which it seeks to disprove, or is in reaction to. If one cannot hold the tension of all ideas as equally valid, one cannot be free.

Ta dah!!!
"I'm going to create man and woman with original sin. Then I'm going to impregnate a woman with myself as her child, so that I can be born. Once alive, I will kill myself as a sacrifice to myself. I do this to save you from the sin I originally condemned you to".... Umnn ... That 'holy spirit' must be some strong sh!t dude.
