Christopher Hitchens destroys David Berlinski’s assertion that the Nazi party was Darwinistic or in anyway secular.

“I want to live my life taking the risk all the time that i don’t know anything like enough yet, that i haven’t understood enough, that I can’t know enough, that i’m always hungry operating on the margins of a potentially great harvest of future knowledge and wisdom. I wouldn’t have it any other way. And I dare you to look at those who tell you, those people who tell you at your age that you’re dead until you believe as they do. What a terrible thing to be telling to children, and that you can only live by accepting an absolute authority. Don’t think of that as a gift, think of it as a poison chalice, push it aside however tempting it is and take the risk of thinking for yourself. Much more happiness, truth, beauty, and wisdom will come to you that way.” Christopher Hitchens

RIP Christopher Hitchens

You were one of the most brilliant minds of our century and you will be missed.

Your arguments against religion were some of the most logical and rational that have ever been presented.

Thank you!
