Never mind that it's rabble rousing and offers no EVIDENCE to the contrary. He makes an excellent point in a very bad context. The leap of faith is infinite. But perhaps it is also iterative. Within the context of its own thought faith narrows in on grace. And what more could one ask for. Science too is a winnowing process. A process which I'm sure Hitchens deifies without a second thought. But we must wait centuries for science to transform the whole planet. Faith can transform in a life time.
On the spot. Chris doesnt deal with Spiritual concepts per se but Organised Faith systems -Absolutist Literalist, medievalist dogmatic,stunted,paronoid and murderouslu unscientific cultism.He clearly states that he has no quarrel with meditative self explorative mysticism but with hypothetical,questionable,aggressive,prpogandist mania. Much of what he says is the suppressed, unread and ignored Renaissance era Thinkers updated.Nice video.

Do you have a used bookstore nearby? I just bought a copy last week, it only cost me six dollars.

it's funny how he still mixes up religions and God as if if you deny a certain religion, God disappears.
