@andyissemicool I don't like the way that Cooper just threw in that his father died of a heart-attack; it diverts from what Hitchens is saying. He didn't say "I don't want to die the same way my father did" he just didn't want to die, but that's the way his father died.
@TibetKanagawa What are you talking about. Anderson Cooper is one of the more capable reporters out of the now lackluster CNN outfit. He is certainly no slouch, and anyone comparing him to a vapid pop star is seriously out of touch.
@10mintwo Well, we obviously have very different opinions on Cooper. I'll never forget how he was caught in an aftershock in Haiti, and was reporting how he quickly put on some pants, as he feared that if the hotel collapsed, he might end up being found without clothes on. Brilliant journalism, indeed! If there is a disaster, whether it be an earthquake, hurricane, aliens attacking... you can be sure Cooper will be at the centre of it! Oh, and don't get me started on the New Year's Eve!
@TibetKanagawa I really don't understand this. Are people genuinely of the opinion that a reporter in possession of even a modicum of sexual charisma beyond that of a Jeremy Paxman are then merely by virtue of that fact automatically less credible and serious? It's like a reflexive antithesis to the dolts who WANT their news to come from some vapid blonde bimbo at Fox because it's "nicer". It's all really quite silly, these tired old biases.
@10mintwo Yes, it is. But, in my opinion (and I am allowed to have one), whilst Cooper may be a nice guy with a collection of plastic soldiers in his toilet (allegedly), I have never seen him ever report or interview with any of the intellectual discipline and gravitas of say a Jeremy Paxman. You are correct, when you wrote that CNN is lackluster. And, of course, I would never insult my intellect watching Fox News.
@WhosFrosty Here here, brother Frosty. I'll miss the old boy - he was a brilliant disputant, and he had more patience with religious bullshit than I do.
I'll be raising a glass to him. Hope you do the same.
After watching my mother die a similar death only two months before at the age of 56, I now know for certain there is no god like many speak of--and if there is, I want nothing to do with it.
i cant pretend he was my Favorite person .but i shall miss him and the color he gave to any subject . here`s to thinking you are right about god, but hoping your wrong . bye mr hitchens.
I do pray for Hitchens, I pray he will soften His heart to Him who is true, for in Jesus there is an amazing peace, hope and love that surpasses all understanding, and this promise: "Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory." (2 Corinthians 4:16-17)
@GaryLyons You could, you know, do something. Donate to cancer research. Your prayers do nothing but absolve your feeling of responsibility. Cowardice, in my opinion.
@killerkerara ...What makes you think that I don't do anything other than prayer? Besides, prayer is doing something especially since it is a spiritual war we are involved in. You know 1 Corinthians 2:14 says - 'The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that came from the Spirit of God and they are foolishness to him, because they are spiritually discerned."
@wolverineminer ...quotes are a good thing. I love this one from Jesus - "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; and no one goes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6) ~ God bless!
@GaryLyons "If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:6)
"I came not to send peace, but a sword." (Matthew 10:34)
"he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one." (Luke 22:36)
"If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned." (John 15:6)
@ckheldon ...You know as an atheist, you are proving God's existence by claiming an objective moral outrage over God. And of course Jesus' words are spiriual in nature, when He talks about bringing a sword, it is not a physical sword, this is clear (see Ephesians 6:10-20). Jesus told Peter to put his physical sword away when he sliced off Malchus' ear. So your attempt to vilify God, only proves His existence, because atheists have no right to claim anything to be objectively wrong. God bless!
@GaryLyons What? Morals have to do with the suffering of sentient beings and especially of human beings. We are social animals and our need for morality evolved to facilitate this. Also I am not attempting to vilify God as I don't believe he exists, I'm simply trying to bring some perspective. Even if it is a spiritual sword that doesn't make it that much better. Also how do you buy a spiritual sword with clothes-money?
@GaryLyons Also you didn't refute Luke 14:6. Even if the hate is symbolic or if it's hate when compared to your love of god it still illustrates one of the greatest immoralities of Christianity: the rejection of real love for divine love for which there's no evidence.
@ckheldon ~ Obviously I do not have to refute Luke 14:6, because it is 100% clear Jesus is all about love. And you are exactly right that illustration was to reveal where His place in our hearts should be. It equates to hate in comparison. I am glad you realize love is the ultimate. No wonder Jesus said "Love your enemies" and "This is how the world will know you are My disciples, if you love one another." ~ You are not that far from God after all because God is love (see 1 John 4:7-8)
@GaryLyons Ditto to you that it's nice to see you've turned the message of the Bible into something positive because it can be interpreted many ways. That doesn't make it any more true. You're using the bible to try to prove the truth of the bible. If I believed god existed and that god asked me to love him more than my friends, my family or even humanity and all of life I would find it completely immoral. It's great that I don't have to worry about it.
@GaryLyons Isn't that convenient that he created us with a hole that only he can fill and then he gets to choose whom he lets in on this arrangement. You're still using The Bible to prove The Bible and that just doesn't work. Continue to pray if you wish and I will continue to hope that you open your own eyes.
@ckheldon ~ my friend my eyes have been opened. I was blind, but the Lord's light has shone in on me. And as the blind man said whom Jesus healed - 'Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know, all I know is this. I was blind, but now I see!" ~ Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me, I was once lost, but now I am found, I was blind, but now I see. My prayer is that the blinders will be lifted from your heart, mind and soul. Merry Christmas and God bless you! :)
@ckheldon of course God is asking everyone to love Him more than anyone ot anything else, because He is our Creator and He knows what is best for us, and what is best for us is Him. It would be immoral for Him to advocate we put someone or something above Him in our hearts, that is why the first commandment says what it says. You say you have nothing to worry about, but Hebrews 9:27 is very clear: "It is appointed for man to die once, then the judgement." ~ I pray He opens your eyes.
@GaryLyons "When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets [testicles]: Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her." (Deuteronomy 25:11-12)
Ps 37,20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD [shall be] as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away. Ps 68,2As smoke is driven away, [so] drive [them] away: as wax melteth before the fire, [so] let the wicked perish at the presence of God.Ps 112,10The wicked shall see [it], and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
hate it when fucking religious assholes speak of Hitchens deteriorating health as revenge from God. such idiots, if God was so fucking powerful then why didnt he finish Hitchens off long before he wrote 'God is not great'- a book that will keep minds free of religious fairytells for decades to come? Why didnt he finish him off before youtube came along and was able to broadcast his wisdom throughout the enitre world for centuries to come? Oh, and so much for 'forgiveness'...fucking cocksuckers.
@raizin8 I am a christian and I would just like to say that religious people who say that clearly are not familiar with proper theology. God does not give cancer to people who do not believe in Him. I would just encourage you to not let a few foolish stupid comments give you a poor image of EVERY Christian.
stop having these religious debates please...its fucking stupid none of you are going to persuade the other, i mean not one person is going to change their whole belief just because of some dumbass comment online
Philosophical fearlessness but political cowardice defines Mr. Hitchin's life in my opinion. He is NOT the zealot that atheism requires in order to advance it's cause in the coming digital enlightment.

Heeee beter get hisssss self right with God. Once he cross over its too late. At least repent, because no one has proven that Heaven and Hell is not real. He's going to take the biggest gamble of his life. I already no he's going to loose.
It's not up to the unbelievers to disprove those concepts, it's up to the believers to prove it in the first place. They started this, and since the beginning have offered no evidence. If I said I can fly, and I said that you can't prove that I can't, I didn't prove that I could. It's the same argument with god, heaven and hell.
Its laughable and at the same time obscene that all the religious fanatics are out there smugly asking 'So, I bet you believe in god NOW huh?' Hitchins has more integrity than half of them will ever hope to aspire to. If they really think that getting ill would scare someone of such moral imperative and strength of character into suddenly recanting his stance they are delusional. As he says, we're all gonna die at some stage. Theists & atheists get illness alike.
@WorldBibleUnion454 vessels*, anyway, you gonna have to elaborate on that bullshit too. Explain me the vast majority of atheists leading a life that has purpose and meaning and without bitterness. Explain me why countries with higher population percentages of atheists have lower crime and abortion rates. Explain me why people of your kind spread messages of hate and prejudice towards those that have none. Explain me why you need god as your babysitter to not harm others... a lack of free will?
David Rockefeller's lickspittle Christ' Hitchens supports the Wilsonian model of "diplomacy" which includes, but is not limited to, expeditionary forces, permanent outposts (bases) and exporting/fomenting revolution by sabotaging local elections to depose popularly-elected leaders.
I just wish the moral majority (of whom are mostly religious) would grant him, and others, a dignified death when the time comes. Why do so many believers in an after-life wish to prolong their fellow humans' existence, often at the consequence that these people live in unimaginable pain, when the life in question is foregone (except in the case of family pets, where the reverse is true) rather than affect a speedy journey to heaven? Could it be that they don't believe? Or are they simply cruel?
instead of giving in to the illusion of that which hitchens despises the most by praying for him. i would rather say that i want him to live or even need hitchens, too continue debating and refuting those who live in a state of blissful ignorance. whether you have good intentions if you pray for him, you do him a disservice by continuing to do so. id argue that he is our modern day gadfly and we all need him to continue living so that the intellectual voice can be heard throughout the world.
Leave him him alone! He doesn't need your prayers..
The letter also dismissed the notion of a possible deathbed conversion, in which he (Hitchens) claimed that "redemption and supernatural deliverance appears even more hollow and artificial to me than it did before."
I hate this, I hope he fucking beats it - firstly for him to survive and also because every foolish believer will think that it's some sort of punishment from God.
Im praying for him..he still has a chance to give his heart to CHRIST....the devil will make a fool out of all who dont believe in CHRIST......there IS no such thing as actions w/o CONSEQUENCES....GOD BLESS!
@Thulgore Smoking is a path to Cancer......all sin leads to DEATH.....we ALL have to answer to GOD whether we pretend HE doesnt exist or not..GOD bless u
@Thulgore What actions?..smoking causes cancer...drinking causes liver problems..unprotected sex causes AIDS...YES he DID harm someone ...his self...GOD bless u!!
It's hard to believe people believe in an invisible man in the sky that loves you, but is vengeful. If you truly love "God", you would hang yourself to be closer to him in your "Kingdom of gold". Of course, you're all are full of shit and don't actually believe the bullshit you preach. And why are you Christian douchebags on an Atheists video judging anyways? Thou shou not judge apply here? Religion = mass mental sickness.
@666reasons2killU: The fact is, almost 100% of human beings are massively insane. So-called "god" is only one of hundreds or thousands of fictions humans believe in. Measured in terms of sanity, most human beings are one of the lowest life-forms... quite probably THE lowest.
,I think it may also prove helpful to some of the viewers here to try to evaluate many of the more strident claims of the anti-theist critique ("brights") from a ideological/ metaphysics perspective. Check out the recent article by Jackson Lears in the May 16, 2011 issue of the The Nation entitled "Same Old New Atheism" .The article offers a compelling analysis of Sam Harris' works. Consideration is given to general atheistic social perspectives
"Hitchens is facing death, with incredible grace and honesty" - this says it all about Hitchens state of mind. He faces death the way he should face life....Let him die because he definetely does not deserve to have lived....!
@TheRuiMartins what's wrong with being graceful and honest in the face of death? the conclusion you draw makes no sense. it's exactly the way he faces life.
That's what happens when you deny God, you lose your hair sucker! And Anderson Cooper you white piece of shit whiteboy skankwhore who set Egypt on fire..
(CONT. FROM BELOW)... Mr Hitchens has had the benefit of a questionable excellent mind but his stupidity took over....! His defiant attitude towards very strong social beliefs and the use of expensive words only worked in the minds and hearts of the Pseudo-Intelectual Loosers whithout any sense of purpose....!
@TheRuiMartins Hitchens is facing death, with incredible grace and honesty, and not wavering from his position. He is a free thinker, not inclined at all to simply digest and regurgitate received opinion. As it seems likely English is not your first language I will not comment in some of your more unusual.......contructions.
@TheRuiMartins You have injured my feelings and, hence, I am going to take my own life. No Catholic burial of course, but Il will get to drink with Hitchens in that place that is not Heaven but might as well be for all practical purposes, Cheers.
@molloyxx1 - Oh...And if you wish to be an english teacher maybe I should help by letting you know that it is written "constructions" and not " contructions"....SAD!
God is bigger then all insults from athiest aand also from my reactions. fuckin athiest are right maybe I want hitchens to be in hell but according the bible that's not what God wants. I can hate, disrespect, even not let him heal my cerebral palsy. I can yell at christians all day but it will never stops God holy spirit
I'm fuckin sick of christians telling I shouldn't shove my beliefs down athiest throats. That's my right. And if it was illegal so what. From the pit of hell I'll laugh my ass of how hitchens will weep for Jesus. don't bother me with your comments. Don't fucking under estimmate my cerebral that I'll never God heal..
@DIEGOPSYCHE Too bad you'll never convince people with your poor sentence constructs (some sentences are truly unreadable) and spelling. Thing is, the people you're firing your insanity at, have the right to not only disagree but also to point out that god, christ isn't real, and how naive you are to assume that Hitchens even gives a rat for fairy tales. Stop bothering people smarter and stronger than you with your idiotic comments. There is such a thing as honor and you don't have it.
@ZionistIDF really? so all those poor children that die everyday in Africa,or other countries,are just punished by God for some reasons? You're all a bunch of fucking heads full of shit...
@ZionistIDF I am a Christian and am completely embarassed by your spirit. "That is why Hitchens was made to suffer publicly". God makes the rain fall on the just and the unjust. Your theory of how God operates completely falls apart due to the fact that children, Christians, and everyone else can and does get cancer. This was your time to bring forth the SPIRIT OF CHRIST."Whoever says to his brother 'you fool!' shall be in danger of hell fire. You put yourself under judgement my friend. Repent!
@ZionistIDF You have a poor atitude. You show nothing to display the love of Christ. "You idiots"? How about a meek spirit. You pick and choose the scripture that fits your current mood. After the sermon on the mount Jesus said that those who here my words and do not put them into practice will suffer a great fall. "Not every one who says to me 'lord lord' will enter into the kingdom. This guy had 2 family members commit suicide. You cannot judge him. Let God judge. You need to mature.
@ZionistIDF "Do not judge for by the same measure that you judge shall be measured against you". How do you know he is receiving divine judgement? That is inconsistent to what happens to the innocent who suffer.
To timjong - He works as an editor for Vanity Fair. He is also one of the worlds foremost intellectuals and his ability to put people in their place using words is unsurpassed. He has a thorough knowledge of history and politics. I don't see what's so embarassing.
Cooper got his ass handed to him on jeopardy by cheech marin. What a fuckin moron. Too bad he didn't try to outright debate anything with Hitch, that would've been an intellectual ant getting squashed by a sledgehammer. Hang in there, Hitch.
let us Pray that Mr. hitchens doesn't die without God (Christ) in His life. That would be a tragety. If he turns his heart toward God, he will not spend eternity in hell. It's not too late!!
@euralj06 Stupidest most arrogant patronizing comment ever made. To threaten a atheist with hell is beyond logic. Something Christians seem to have a problem with
@hakaboy6924 Watch this asshole suffer and die. When you all get there, you will not be there with him. Hell is a lonely place where the fire burns fron the inside out. Chrsitians will not hear his arrogant stupidity ever again. Blessed be the Name of the Lord.
@euralj06 "Chrsitians"? At least learn to spell your silly cult's name properly.
Look, your comment is a perfect example of why religions won't survive. They are evil and the people who believe in them are backward cretins. Christianity has only been around for 2,000 years out of the 100,000+ of human history (and islam even less). Science and reason have taken major leaps in the past 100 years and will replace and eradicate all religions. Religions will ultimately be seen as curious blips.
@euralj06 That is the most most unchristian rant I have ever heard, and with a soul like that if indeed you do believe in hell any preacher would tell you you are going straight to it with him. Turn the other cheek, do unto others as you wish done unto you etc bla bla bla
We need this man for many years yet! I'm not exactly gonna pray for him, but my positive thoughts are definitely with him to get passed this awful period <3
Hitchens is the ULTIMATE SHOCK JOCK!!! More crass than Howard Stern, more convincing than Rush Limbaugh, more obnoxious than even Bill O'Reilly & certainly less of a homosexual than Anderson Cooper.
Hitchens is THE intellectual BULLY of our time, his opponents ALWAYS go down. Love live the HITCHSLAP!
Anderson Cooper seems in personal awe. I feel that genuinely asking how Chris looks at a suicide that hit home, was because of how rational and smart he realized Chris is.This was a real interview.. with 2 real dudes. Much respect cooper... i woulda done the same
@BoatNectar u know Anderson Cooper is a Vanderbilt right? His family has more cash than several 3rd world countries put together, if he's not in awe Hitch takes him to task!
Degenerated dipsomaniac Hitchens promotes the Rockefeller-Kissinger model of American-Anglican empire that will last into the 22nd century. It is a modernist/corporatist feudal system, with elements of mercantilism, designed to destroy federalism, and the free market economies they beget, planetarily.

The problem with heaven-sent marijuana is the government and its insistence that marijuana-users be caged.
@smoo9309 you assume i own a bible, and i think me reading the bible would only increase the solidity in my atheistic beliefs, so your comment falls upon deaf ears i am afraid
9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
SInce you claim you don't own a Bible, I'm guessing you haven't read or know what it is about? In short it states that Man is bad and NEEDS to be saved by a GOOD God.
@smoo9309 you're a persist one aren't you, well, my grandfather read me the bible when i was young, and it made just about as much sense then as it does now, god creating man which is bad is a failure on his part, so he pretty much is a shitty creator, i will NEVER believe in your god unless substantial scientific proof is brought forward, but i respect you for having strong conviction for your belief, but if someone such as myself has no interest believing...then let it go
At first Creation convicted me also the Bible hasn't been proven wrong.The 2nd law of thermodynamics proves that organization cannot flow from chaos.Complex live organisms cannot rearrange themselves into an organism of a higher form as claimed by evolutionists.This is scientifically backwards according to the 2nd law of thermodynamics that has never been proven wrong.Scientists cannot have it both ways.The 2nd law of thermodynamics is PROVEN to be correct.Evolution lacks any scientific proof.
@smoo9309 are you a scientist? no? then shut up, the complexity of all sciences is astounding and i highly doubt you know much of it at all, many rules of science are proven wrong or have exception for specific situations or events, and you are also a moron, of course the bible cant be proven wrong...its a book, its physical matter, but the content that it contains can also not be proven, your god is a figment of your imagination, deal with it
@Suspectcobra you wanted "scientific evidence". do you know what the def. of a scientific law is? probably not...Scientific Law-A law generalizes a body of observations. At the time it is made, no exceptions have been found to a law. Scientific laws explain things, but they do not describe them. One way to tell a law and a theory apart is to ask if the description gives you a means to explain 'why'...did you see that word NO EXCEPTIONS. You put your 100% trust in a theory & I'm the moron!! nice.
He called it; there have been all sorts of rumours that he had a deathbed conversion, just like he said.

@killerkerara ...What makes you think that I don't do anything other than prayer? Besides, prayer is doing something especially since it is a spiritual war we are involved in. You know 1 Corinthians 2:14 says - 'The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that came from the Spirit of God and they are foolishness to him, because they are spiritually discerned."

@ckheldon ...You know as an atheist, you are proving God's existence by claiming an objective moral outrage over God. And of course Jesus' words are spiriual in nature, when He talks about bringing a sword, it is not a physical sword, this is clear (see Ephesians 6:10-20). Jesus told Peter to put his physical sword away when he sliced off Malchus' ear. So your attempt to vilify God, only proves His existence, because atheists have no right to claim anything to be objectively wrong. God bless!
GaryLyons 2 months ago
@GaryLyons What? Morals have to do with the suffering of sentient beings and especially of human beings. We are social animals and our need for morality evolved to facilitate this. Also I am not attempting to vilify God as I don't believe he exists, I'm simply trying to bring some perspective. Even if it is a spiritual sword that doesn't make it that much better. Also how do you buy a spiritual sword with clothes-money?
ckheldon 2 months ago
@GaryLyons Also you didn't refute Luke 14:6. Even if the hate is symbolic or if it's hate when compared to your love of god it still illustrates one of the greatest immoralities of Christianity: the rejection of real love for divine love for which there's no evidence.
ckheldon 2 months ago
@ckheldon ~ Obviously I do not have to refute Luke 14:6, because it is 100% clear Jesus is all about love. And you are exactly right that illustration was to reveal where His place in our hearts should be. It equates to hate in comparison. I am glad you realize love is the ultimate. No wonder Jesus said "Love your enemies" and "This is how the world will know you are My disciples, if you love one another." ~ You are not that far from God after all because God is love (see 1 John 4:7-8)
GaryLyons 2 months ago
@GaryLyons Ditto to you that it's nice to see you've turned the message of the Bible into something positive because it can be interpreted many ways. That doesn't make it any more true. You're using the bible to try to prove the truth of the bible. If I believed god existed and that god asked me to love him more than my friends, my family or even humanity and all of life I would find it completely immoral. It's great that I don't have to worry about it.

@ckheldon of course God is asking everyone to love Him more than anyone ot anything else, because He is our Creator and He knows what is best for us, and what is best for us is Him. It would be immoral for Him to advocate we put someone or something above Him in our hearts, that is why the first commandment says what it says. You say you have nothing to worry about, but Hebrews 9:27 is very clear: "It is appointed for man to die once, then the judgement." ~ I pray He opens your eyes.

I just wish the moral majority (of whom are mostly religious) would grant him, and others, a dignified death when the time comes. Why do so many believers in an after-life wish to prolong their fellow humans' existence, often at the consequence that these people live in unimaginable pain, when the life in question is foregone (except in the case of family pets, where the reverse is true) rather than affect a speedy journey to heaven? Could it be that they don't believe? Or are they simply cruel?
