God Is Not Great, I. "Putting it mildly" part 3 of 3

[iBeep2009]

Baroness Warsi has refused to afford atheists the same protection from discrimination as christians, muslims and jews, by removing one word from a Bill currently going through the Houses of Parliament...its true, they cannot stand the fact that some people dont actually need to be told to be nice to each other by 'god'- on pain of death!

Man made female muslim politician - elected as a token, now lecturing the ruddy Pope in a special delegation on behalf of british christians! Rather like Condoleeza Rice - a moronic puppet who'll say anything the boys in the backroom write for her to say.

[iBeep2009]

Baroness Warsi and her ilk are the problem -

This editing cuts Marx's quote, I was kind of confused at first but for anyone FYI 0:00 - 0:30 is not Hitch speaking, it's the continuation of the quote from the previous video, chapter II, part 2 of 3

Religion isn't the poison......we are the posion.....everything is beautiful even death and decay ...its all the same........Atoms/DNA whatever u like to call it!

Sin and good deeds go hand in hand its ur perspective and intelligence that judges the differences....we are both good and bad........thats nature not GOD!

Brilliantly written and read :) Thank you for posting the audiobook here! Hearing it read out by him really adds something. I have to say though, I laughed at the use of the rather dainty piano music at the end, immediately following the line: 'Religion poisons everything'. :p

Thank you Christopher Hitchens for helping me to confront the terrors caused by the stories instilled into me as a boy by my (well intentioned) parents, teachers, nuns and priests.

The nightmares are over. Thankyou!

Dictionary required, not fun. It is safe to say he writes with an awareness of impressing by way of his entanglement and use of words the vast majority of people are capable of using and understanding but do not care to. Between the topic and his writing and speaking style, he comes across as a narcissist to me. With his impending death on the accidental daily horizon, I wonder if he has began to consider, that perhaps there is another type of existence awaiting him, by chance of course. :)

@vtwzy

>can't attack argument

>attack writer and his style instead

Nice tactic. Though I'm glad you seem to recognize your beliefs are more easily accepted by fearful person struggling on the brink of death than by an ordinary thinking person. If you want to complain about his use of vocabulary you've never heard of then why not go write him a letter, or even better, a book-length counter argument.

@vtwzy Aww, how darling! The appeal from mundanity!

Instead of whinging and moaning about how you can't understand the big words, LEARN THEM. It's most apparent from your verbose writing style that you are fully capable of comprehending language but are, perhaps, too lazy to make the effort.

Between your complaining, your writing style, your choice of complaints and your parting jab, it's apparent that it's not really his writing that chaps your ass, but his antitheism.

[EbonGaming]

@vtwzy Don't blame Hitchens for not being able to understand this, blame your education.

[rriverstone1]

@vtwzy So, you're saying you're too lazy to understand a complex sentence? He's referencing very common things. It's very easy to understand. YOU come "across as a narcissist, to me!" You appear to suffer from delusions of adequacy. Why to do the lazy and shiftless always blame their paltry "quality" of life on those who actually HAVE quality lives, instead of growing themselves? You blame everything on somebody else? You call it "faith?" How disingenuous and contrived! watch tv much? lol

[jpbarbedwire666]

@vtwzy your just a dumb ass that's why your having a hard time with this ok so go back to 3rd grade and learn some new words ok bud

[viicISrotcib]

religion poisons everything should be as true as the fact that the sun is bigger than the Earth.

[ethankegley]

I'm so glad he did this, and you posted this, I have the book, but lent it to a friend, so now I can listen and relisten to it as much as I want and or need:)

The only thing finer than reading Christopher Hitchens is listening to Christopher Hitchens.

Thanks for the upload.

Mr Hitchens needs to accept the Flying Spagetti Monster into his life, praise his name

[CheekyVimto08]
