Christopher Hitchens - as always - cuts through the total BS that is religion. He concedes it not greatness and no ethicacy.
I am so glad that his word and thought - and his voice - has been immortalized in print and video and in the ever growing push back against organized religion.
"Can anyone really say, "it may not be true, but it brings comfort..", without embarrassment?"
LOL! Yes they can! To paraphrase the WTBTS, "Rutherford's teachings were "cherished errors", but they were faith strengthening aids!"

In this video Hitchens explains how religion was humanity's first human endeavor to attain the truth of the world in which we live but in view of religion's inherent age or era when it started it was are worse in view of what humanity has cumulatively leaned of are selves and the world in which we live.
I've been looking into learning more about paleoanthrpology and was wondering if someone could recommend a book by Mr. Hitchens? I like Dawson but Hitchens seems a bit more reasonable in his approach.
thanks for this thread too. Videos are outstanding!!
