Maybe he has changed his mind by now. :lol:

PS. Good riddance.


Dead people do not have minds. The mind is merely a function of a physical brain. Once the brain stops functioning the mind is gone,... unless brain activity can be restored, something highly unlikly when the brain becomes lunch for worms and bugs.

Good riddance to who, Bananiot or Hitchens or both? :twisted:

All atheists. :wink:


Hitchens was just another Jew (atheist), but they are also the commies, liberals, capitalists. :evil:

Thanks for that info Yialousa.

I didn't realise he was also a Jew. Usually Jews hide under the vague curtain of Atheism to attack and mock Christianity.

Now it makes perfect sense. Thanks again. :wink:

"Those of us who are governed by the rule of law don’t demand very much. We are very modest and understated in what we ask.
All we want is for the removal of every single Turkish soldier from Cyprus, as international law demands, the restoration of the sculpture of Phidias [the Parthenon Marbles] as a unity, the same way it was carved, as a tribute to the glories of 5th century Athens and the human culture that it has inspired.
Take heart. You have friends who will never desert you.
Mr. Erdogan, tear down that wall. Zito I Ellas (Long live Greece). Eleftheri I Kypros (Free Cyprus)."


Hitchens


Great quote. Thanks for posting. Hitchens was a great friend of Cyprus, and a great Philhellene. Byron would've been proud of 'Hitch'.

Atheists share nothing with Judaism. On the other hand Christians have a lot in common with the Jews. Most of your beliefs are the same. You differ only on the details.

Jesus showed what the Jews were as he said:-

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.


So from the above we can see christianity is nothing to do with Jews and Mary (Maria) was not a Jew. In Byzantium (Christian Hellenic empire) Jews were not permitted to carry out their usury practices so true christianity is nothing to do with Judaism. :wink: In fact most atheists are Jews. :evil:

Given the space devoted to all of his famous friends, some critics have derided the book as an abandonment of a memoir’s main purpose: to reveal one’s personal life. Minimal space is given to his family life — he’s married, with three kids. But at least one figure gets the two whole chapters: his mother, Yvonne Hickman.

She committed suicide when he was 23, and it was not until Hitchens was 38 that he found out she was Jewish. “Well, I’ve got something to tell you,” Yvonne’s mother Dorothy told Hitchens’ brother. “So are you.”

It was Hitchens’ brother Peter who then revealed the information to him, and while Hitchens has written about his Jewish heritage before, “Hitch-22” rehashes it at great length. He writes that his mother’s decision to hide her identity from him was based on her total commitment to his becoming a proper English gentleman.
