The Death of a Hero and the Shameless Yahoo! News Users

[waltzification]

Jeez.. So many people.. So much ignorance.. The truth is, that by condemning others, You condemn only Yourself.. Be good to all humans, even if they dont share Your religion or beliefs.. We are all humans born from a mom.. If You dont have respect for that then You have truly lost Yourself on the way of persueing even bigger ignorance on the web..

Never heard of him.

Those comments will mean nothing to future generations that look for truth. They will see his videos and his books and I can tell you that once they begin to understand just how ridiculous religion is they will look on comments like this and see its true face. Ugly and pathetic. Rest in Truth Hitch.. you will be missed.

Christians are the biggest hypocrites to ever infest this planet.

Just remember friends that this fight does not die with the Hitch. A fire has burnt out, but the embers will land in many places. By his own words we can still meet him through his works, his literature and his debates. His body has died but the greatest part of him will live on as long as we exist to gain insight and remain defiant to the chains of religious servility.

[ronin671]

One of the things Hitch lived for in life: "being vindicated".

Well these retarded Christian arseholes have certainly vindicated him in death also, their absurd pea brained drivel just proves him right over and over again. I say let them go on spewing pious rantings it only strengthens the case against them,

[farje1]

We must not be surprised. These comments confirm what Hitch fought against: the bigotry, the nastiness, the stupidity of religion, the virulent fanaticism of those who worship an imaginary friend and demand that others do the same. There you have it, Christians talk about forgiveness, but tell them that you don't agree with them and they'll insult you. I am sure that those imbeciles who wrote those nasty comments believe that they will go to heaven for saying that. Very sad individuals.

when an atheist die (especially someone like hitch), christians all of a sudden act like their burden of proof has vanished and their claims have became self evident.

[paulspydar]

That is such an old joke,they just added Hitch`s name .Typical reliance on old stories plagiarized & then altered just enough to suit, Hmmm, sounds familiar. ;-) Bottoms up Mr Hitchens.

I personally spent hours on yahoo news yesterday thumbs downing smug christian bastards and replying to their hateful, venomous comments. In a way, I'm glad they did what they did. Now I've made a resolution, I'm going to spend less time being an atheist, and more time being an ANTI-THEIST. I going to proselytize secularism and actively, militantly point out the evils of religion and faith.

[LordMalice6d9]

@Ersa1a It tis truly disgusting how many of the Christians and Muslims for that matter wait until AFTER the poor man has died and can't even defend himself to spill their venom rather than doing it mostly while he was alive.

[auimike]

@Ersa1a So you would do the same to others as what is being done to you? And that makes sense, how?

[Ersa1a]

@auimike I never claimed it made sense, or that it was fair. It's as simple as this, I'm right and they're wrong and I don't feel like being nice about it any longer. If there is a god, he can strike me dead.

[jazzx251]

Haha - some of those Christian comments are so smug. "He's not an atheist now." - lol. Pathetic.

[Voxnulla]

Yes, there is the Christian brotherly love for you. So much for loving thy enemies, turning the other cheek and all that other stuff faith-heads so often do not adhere to.
