Christopher Hitchens: God is Not Great
Manage episode 342344539 series 3399233
The late, great Christopher Hitchens came to Amsterdam in 2008 touring his book: God is Not Great. Hitchens excelled at polemics. He considered himself to be politically liberal and yet expressed his full-throated support for the war in Iraq and called Hillary Clinton “an aging and resentful female”. And then there were the blistering attacks on religion and religious belief. He also details: how religion is a worse than any totalitarian regime, why science and religion are fundamentally incompatible, and why it’s a bad time for secularism in politics.
Somehow, despite this talk being 13 years old now, his remarks about religion in politics, seem as relevant as ever.
