RIP Christopher Hitchens

Sometimes brilliant, sometimes incoherent, but always, as far as I could tell, fearless.

  1. Brilliant, maybe. Fearless, definitely. Willing to take on Tony Blair and skilled enough in rhetoric to hand him a drubbing.

    That said, he was a bit tedious. That's how I generally find radical atheists. I often wish they'd understand that someone wishing them Merry Christmas isn't an affront or an attempt to push religion upon them, anymore than anyone wishing them a Happy Birthday is someone trying to subject them to ageist evaluation.

    The radical atheists are as tiresome as any religious zealot.
