Was Christopher Hitchens Most Enlightened Thinker of Our Time?

It was almost as if he operated on another level amongst the masses with very few (Dawkins, Hawking) remotely close. The guy belonged to another class with Socrates and Plato. I was just reviewing his work and it's astounding.

Possibly. If not, he certainly came across as such.

Hitchens is a giant piece of shite. frick that dude.

on some things, yes. his political views are a little ehhh
one of my favorite writers, though. he had an eloquence and beauty to his writing that I haven't seen matched. he sounded extremely intelligent without being gratuitously verbose. even if you disagreed with him, you appreciated his argumentation
he could put smackdowns on people like no other

I wonder if he was deliberately sent to confuse the point regarding Orwell

I preferred the writings of his brother.

I'm glad he is dead. I hope it was painful.

It's amazing how an intellectual atheist can make you all abandon the love of Jesus so quickly. He owned you in life and death.

He was Kige Ramsey without the sexual magnetism

I hate him mainly for his attacks on Mother Teresa. I also hate him for being a Marxist and specifically his view on libertarianism.

What part of him being a moron do you not understand? The man was a simpleton who would have been laughed at by the "intellectual atheists" who came before him.
