And his hatred of religion and religious people is well documented. But that's not why he's wrong. He's wrong because he is wrong about facts. He continues to be wrong about facts because his blind hatred won't allow him to rethink his arguments, and many who might otherwise call him on such silly notions (like they do Glen Beck and others who make a joke of themselves), tend to ignore him because, I can't help but think, they share some of his biases.David Griffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06629314279592541401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6226269873507053740.post-1033395124659304282011-02-22T12:13:31.215-05:002011-02-22T12:13:31.215-05:00So your only argument is that Hitchens must be wro...So your only argument is that Hitchens must be wrong because he's angry?<br />Wow.<br />Congratulations, you just debunked all of philosophy, a branch of thinking based primarily on angry, unhappy thoughts...Vicentehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14010144635209936329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6226269873507053740.post-63206366869484304612011-01-28T13:19:12.613-05:002011-01-28T13:19:12.613-05:00The fact that Hitchens is still quoted by the medi...The fact that Hitchens is still quoted by the media demonstrates the media's own bias and anti-religious prejudice. After all, would they quote Fred Phelps in an article about a recent film? I doubt it. They don't quote Fred Phelps when it is a story about Fred Phelps. They find his views to be that offensive. Yet Hitchens, who has made statements almost as bad regarding religion and religious people, continues to be quoted as if his opinions matter.<br /><br />-BenHeardAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6226269873507053740.post-47503231629585916302011-01-27T11:45:40.289-05:002011-01-27T11:45:40.289-05:001st about the movie.

A story within the story. <br />What the article you refered to was lacking was much substance. Who really cares what Hitchens thinks. I know I don't <br />The movie appears to have great acting and looks well done overall. Isn't that what really making a movie is all about. It is not a documentary where facts matter. So I guess I dont' see the issue and if it is such a big issue then why dont' they site several individuals.deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02320102107597835487noreply@blogger.com
