  • Christopher Hitchens was the best among equals. A champion fro reason and sanity.

  • That last guy in the video is living fucking poetry. Goddammit he gave me chills

  • Miss you, Hitch. I'm thankful you existed as you did.

  • Dear Christopher, almost two years ago I went to a christian camp and the people that worked there talked about how god is love. I was 15 then, and I was thinking about converting to christianity. When I got home I went on youtube to learn more about it, I looked up debates on religion, and I found you. You changed my life, and I'll never forget what you did for me. Christopher, you are missed by some, still hated by most. And I bet you would've liked that. Goodbye, we'll take it from here.

  • R.I.P

  • I miss ya Hitch :(

  • I have never been saddened by the death of someone I've never met until Hitchens died. I didn't even feel as sad when Carlin died for Christ's sake! And I could never understand why people would cry for the death of someone they've never met, until Hitchens' death. You will be sorely missed. Entire communities wept, and the world is now a darker place, but we will still live in the knowledge that your legacy will live on in the things you left behind. :'(

  • The world will be a much darker place now that he is out of it. But we have his books, his debates and some of us even have the fire that spurned him on. And borrowing from the immortal Hitch himself ."Ladies and gentleman, friends, brothers and sisters, comrades", never let that fire go out. We love you Hitch, and we will keep fighting for reason.

  • @TheAerosmither

    You must be a parody or insane

  • Idiot - Oh how sad, I'll prey for him

    Me - Oh how sad, *shoots idiot in face*

  • @Quranmuppet

    BTW it's that has to be prepared, not have to be prepared, you silly dumbass

    That's why you and your barbaric culture will never achieve anything, you're not even smart enough to understand what sane people are talking about.

    Remember how Saddam and Osama kicked the bucket? That was us, clown

    You people are the scum of the earth

  • R.I.P Christopher Hitchens.

  • @SpinyNorman416 Okay...?

  • @MaxamillianArturo

    Stop lying, douchebag, I've seen it as well

  • @sonykroket Lying about what?

  • @MaxamillianArturo

    You're calling everyone faggots, gays etc all the time.

    Stop acting like you don't.

  • @sonykroket I dont really understand your point

  • @MaxamillianArturo

    Not many psychos do

  • @sonykroket Alrighty...

  • @sonykroket then why bother responding?

    i gave you a choice and i said "if you can"

    but i'm not gonna leave you empty handed so the point is:

    change your intro about religions come to die because it's not a fact. it's an illusion. and you're a Man of facts

    is it Man or Monkey? which name is more accurate in your doctrine?

    you know lets call you "M" how bout that?

    atheists should have clean language as they advise + gay isn't a bad word as far as i know. does it hurt?

  • Comment removed

  • @TheAerosmither

    It's obvious you know nothing except for fairytales. Or you wouldn't post the nonsense you are posting.

    You have no shame displaying your ignorance, it seems

  • @sonykroket finally...a clean reply from an atheist.

    you should do the same in your other comments even if people aren't watching.

    Islam being No.1 in the world is not nonsense nor fairytale, it's a proven tested fact.

    and yeah... i have no shame displaying my arrogance.

    don't post comments then delete it immediately, it won't become fun that way.

  • @TheAerosmither

    Islam sucks goatballs and i delete posts because of spellingerrors

    Just because many people believe (or are forced to believe) in stupid shit doesnt mean the stupid shit is true

    You worship a warmongering pedophile, i guess you have no morals

  • @sonykroket

    BTW i said ignorance, not arrogance. Although you wouldn't know the difference anyway. Maybe you should take that sandboxcomicbook out of your head for a change so you can see whats being typed

  • @sonykroket here comes the filthy language again. you can't help i guess.

    don't talk about morals. i only call you with what Darwin used to call you.

    all the new converts are forced into Islam. one way or another they're forced.

    what you gonna do about it? write a poem?

    and we're not talking about what's true and what's not anymore, not the same dumb argument of opinions. especially not with Monkeys.

    you deny with your mouth, but can you believe you denial? suspicious Monkey.

    block me if you can

  • @TheAerosmither

    With every comment you display your stupidity even more.

    Why don't you give it a rest, same goes for your fairytale

  • @sonykroket OK i will give it a rest.

    but i don't promise that my fairytale will do. it will keep growing. and it wont rest.

    tell me when science discovers the source of energy/matter in the Big Bang.

    don't forget me. i need to hear it from science.

  • @TheAerosmither

    LOL your fairytale is giving any decent answers on the BB or anything? And your fairytale growing or not is a threat to mankind so be prepared to meet opposition

    Give science a few years and theyll be able to explain that as well. So far science has destroyed all the other myths and BS about nature and the cosmos, it;s just a matter of time before there are no mor gaps to stick your silly god in

    Si? muy bien

    BTW why do you worship a warmongering pedophile?

  • @sonykroket did you say opposition?

    you have no idea what's coming your way

    believe me, or should i say perceive me...

    the good sign is that most of what we know in Islam is starting to develop now and you don't wanna know where it's leading

    and oh yeah we're prepared, long time ago when infidels didn't believe Islam is coming their ways

    it's you that have to be prepared not to get killed like Theo van Gogh one day

    you people love life more than anything, unlike Muslims

    and No, i worship Allah.

  • Comment removed

  • @sonykroket well yeah..it's a threat. isn't that obvious?

    and who told you that Islam is only peace? it's peace and Jihad.

    its peace when you live along and don't use your limitless freedom of speech against it.

    when you do that Islam wont be peaceful with you. and it will use Freedom of Act against you.

    now that's a taste of your own medicine.

    and let's be honest, your people and NATO did piss their pants, you just love life and you know it.

    Muslims want to die in the field, for the Belief.

  • @TheAerosmither

    You clowns are alive because of enlightened western values. If we would hold the same violent attitude or morals as you and your ilk do, you would be extinct already

  • @sonykroket thanks for not eliminating us, that was so nice of you.

  • @TheAerosmither

    Wasn't my idea

  • @sonykroket Do your best.

  • @TheAerosmither

    I don't have to. When the oil is gone in your sandbox, you'll be begging for help anyway

  • @sonykroket i'm counting the years, you have no idea.

  • @TheAerosmither

    I have an idea, you're an idiot

  • @sonykroket Okay...?

  • @SpinyNorman416 I dont recall mentioning homosexuals

  • @SpinyNorman416 Are you taking the piss right proper?

  • @SpinyNorman416 I'm not a Christian so....

  • @MaximumAsshole

    You're not even worthy of being called human. Consider suicide as a positive career step, and as a small way of apologizing to all of us for your unmitigated, shameless oxygen theft.

    Go now.

  • @allieron Well, obviously nature didn't see Hitchens as worthy of air so thats why he developed cancer and died a slow painful death. Now he is being consumed by maggots and blow flies. All hail the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

  • 40 people are dick heads....

  • Such a shame I learned about this man only recently...

  • Well, its safe to say he's getting ass raped in hell now. Praise be to God.

  • @sexyeur You dishonor the memory of a great and brave man. How dare you! Your own scripture condemns you for "having not love..." Your mouth only serves to turn many more away from christianity, (which is a good thing) but DO NOT slander this great man. You simply are not worthy of him.

  • For Christopher it's too late to take the saving knowledge of Christ. He has died, at least publicly, in sin denying God. Imagine, slipping mercilessly into eternity denying the One, the only One, who can save you from hell...He'll have no memory that there was a way out of hell, and he'll simply burn forever knowing his own conscience condemns him for his desire to live apart from every good he took for granted... only God is good, refuse God and you refuse everything good in life. Damned 4ver.

  • In a fascinating account, Peter Hitchens describes his autobiographical and spiritual journey from atheism to faith in God...Peter...lost faith in his teenage years..eventually finding atheism barren, he came..to his current affiliation to belief in Christianity...He became convinced...That...politics is a form of false religion in which people try to substitute a social conscience for an individual one...dangerous...[that] liberty and law...are also the..by-products of Christian faith...

  • @sexyeur It's from his book, in stock with rave reviews! RAGE AGAINST GOD. Here's more: "He became convinced...that utopianism...is actively dangerous, dismissing the dangerous idea of earthly perfection, discouraging men and women from acting as if they were God, encouraging men and women to act in the belief that there is a God and an ordered, purposeful universe, governed by an unalterable law."

    ;) SWEET! Thank you Peter!!!! Blow these hypocrites away!!!!

  • lol @ NAR NOT in the url...

  • Isn't he dead, god bless him

  • Powerful ending. Well done :)

  • I don't mind admitting that this brought a tear to my eye.

  • Comment removed

  • @imorbidus Stupidity hurts!

    

  • @imorbidus Hope you realize how totally inappropriate that is. Also how low that is. Actually, you probably don't.

  • @imorbidus haha, successful troll is successful :D

  • I'm looking forward to some responses to this sad news by the other 3 horsemen.

    I also wonder if Hitch wrote anything to be released upon his death squelching death-bed conversion rumors.

  • Thank you Christopher.

  • Thank you Christopher for speaking words of wisdom .

  • rest in peace Hitchens

    you were born ahead of your time and you will be missed

  • RIP HITCHENS...

    YOUR WORDS AND WORK TOWARDS FREE THOUGHT WILL OUTLAST ANY DOGMA...

  • I have never felt so close to crying by the news of the death of someone whom I have never met.

    RIP Christopher Hitchens

    You have left us too soon

  • Thank you,Hitch!...RIP

  • Hitchens is no more.

    God never was.

  • The world is worse off today.But id look at he contribution this person made to lives and outlook of so many than mourn his passing.

  • Short, but full life. RIP Hitch

  • I will miss him , he was the best !

  • The loss of an great person & brilliant mind... Thanks Hitch

  • Comment removed

  • I'm so glad this was made before he passed and that he was able to see it. Farewell, good sir.

  • I will miss you man.

  • You'll be missed...

    

  • Thank you Mr Hitchens for fight for truth and logic. You fought the good fight. You will be missed.

  • Thank you Chris; you've been an inspiration for all of us to voice our opinions and our beliefs (or lack of). You've given us all strength to attempt to knock down the solid wall that is religion. You've made it ok for children and teenagers (like myself) to speak there mind and stick up for what they believe is right. As you've done so much for us, we can only begin to return the favour by wishing you a speedy recovery. Again, thank you and, in a competely athiest way, we're praying for you.

  • I have looked and looked for a place to send him a letter of thanks and best wishes, but I haven't ever gotten anything back from sending it on. Is there a way to contact him without sending a video or am I too late?

  • Cheers Chris, I now think I'll always think before deciding.

  • Comment removed

  • Hitch, you are an absolute champion; the voice of reason; a hero amongst men. You might pass away, but your words will never die. Get well soon, my friend.

  • did anyone else feel a little bit.. how can I put it queasy watching this. I am all for fan tributes but this is fawning fans, and hero worship. However, after all that.. VIVA THE HITCH!!!!!!!

  • who is this guy ? -- wait .. google is my friend

  • Thank you, i will think good thoughts (prayer?) of you and may you get better and live long.

  • Right on Yahweh. So shall it be for all atheists.

  • Mr. Hitchens I am wishing you the best and send my hopes for a speedy recovery after a victory over this difficult trial.

  • Best wishes Hitch. Your brilliance has helped to shine a light on the beauty in this world which nature and man provide all around us and which religion trivializes as being unworthy of our awe. I do hope you get through this, and if anyone can it will be you. If however you do succumb to this illness, you can do so knowing you have achieved more to enlighten the world than any preacher could ever hope to, and you will be missed on a higher level than any amount of spirituality could comprehend.

  • Hitch, you're in my prayers! Lol jk, but seriously, I really hope you do get better

  • My personal hero Hitch.

    Best of the best wishes!

  • Get well soon

  • Mr Hitchens, I wish you a speedy recovery. as has been said, you are in our hearts and minds and very best wishes.

    As for you benighted, superstitious bigots hijacking the thread to spout a lot of BS and hate, the man has cancer! You can't shut up for a few minutes while our community wishes well to our own? How would you feel if we got nasty about your local minister/ snake oil salesman having a terrible illness?

    You tiny little people are really tacky! And you wonder why we despise the cul

  • 38 grave-diggers disliked this video.

  • No respect for those who disliked this.

  • Chris, you helped change my life, and I cannot thank you enough. Your chapter on pigs in God Is Not Great granted me the courage and the spark to try bacon for the first time. I'm still eating it to this day, and am also an outspoken atheist in the Orthodox Jewish community. Thank you and get better so you can kick more theist ass!

  • Keep fighting,Hitch!.

  • Hitch, I've read nearly everything you have written. I'm now reading your book "Arguably Essays" and even though I have to keep a dictionary at my side while reading it, these are the most intelligent and thoughtful essays ever! You are unsurpased , the king of intellectual communication! Thank you for being able to pass on to us your deep understanding of Atheists, religion, faith, christians, or just about anything improtant for us humans to know. You have enriched my life with your wisdom!

  • Sad that anyone would dislike this video.

  • This is a very touching tribute to a great man. Mr. Hitchens, You gave a voice to the skeptical majority who dares not speak their minds.

  • Please people, you know Mr. Hitchens was punished for being an Atheist, that's why 38 people disliked this, enjoying that this sinner is actually having what he deserves.

    ...Now, for real who disliked this? I just want Mr. Hitchens to know that everyone is supporting him and he has fans everywhere and thanks to his teachings a lot of people , including me feels stronger/pround about their point of view. The world needs you, Mr.Hitchens!

  • @cachivache93 wow

  • @cachivache93 what is this the 14th century

  • @christianseatbabies I'm afraid I don't understand this response LOL, 14th century because of the cruelty of people?

  • Thank you! Christopher Hitchens I hope you stick around. You and others like you have given a voice to those who would be silenced by dogma. You chose to question and to live your life with your eyes wide open I know thats not easy but its far better.

  • Thank you! Christopher Hitchens I hope you stick around. You and others like you have given a voice to those who would be silenced by dogma. You chose to question and to live your life with your eyes wide open I know thats not easy but its far better.

  • Thank you, Mr. Hitchens. You and Richard Dawkins and Kenneth Humphries help me wake up from Christianity to reality.

  • He's is one of the best examples of what a teacher should be, ever.

  • To Hitch.......Using logic and intellect to defeat superstition and dogma.........Thankyou.

  • Who is the lady at :43? Can someone link me to her channel?

  • @FleshFarmZombie

    Just wondering no need to get on the defensive.

  • I have a question to atheists.

    Do you guys hate religion?

    Or do you guys just want to inform people about the false idea of Religion?

    Just wondering.

  • @chino9377 Could you possibly have a less original question? Try again.

  • @chino9377 Atheist really isnt a good way to describe 'atheists' lol, because its like me developing a term for the people who DONT think that 2+2=760403, like 'Atwoists' or something like that. Now its going to be pretty hard to develop a general stereotype of that group--the only thing that group has in common is if you ask them all "do you think 2+2=760403?' They would all say no. The same with atheist's--The only thing they ALL have in common is they dont think there is a theistic god.

  • @pawndominance1

    Lol yeah i guess you're right. Don't get me wrong i still use logic i just have a spiritual guidance as well.

    I think everyone should have their right in whatever they say.

  • @pawndominance1 "Atheist really isnt a good way to describe 'atheists' lol, because its like me developing a term for the people who DONT think that 2+2=760403"

    A strange, but accurate analogy. Lol!

  • @QuantumGh0st there is a term for that. Its called unretarted

  • @chino9377 why not both?

  • @hardinmichael1981

    Just wondering, hate in all aspects of life can lead to a man's destruction. Just like what happened to this guy and no i am not saying that it was "God" that made him sick but he did this to himself.

  • @chino9377

    How the hell did he do that to himself?

  • @TheKanonHara its called the law of attraction.

  • @chino9377:

    Are you saying that all the relatives I've lost to cancer who were all very religious did this to themselves? You are a disgusting human being.

    All the best to Mr. Hitchens, get well soon!

  • @Trampadoo

    Dude Mr. Hitchens is already dead....

    How am i disgusting frankly its the truth. Its called the law of attraction. Everything you do say feel believ love touch hope for comes to you. If you have a bad day most likely more bad things are going to happen. If you share happines then a plethora of Joy will come to you. Before you judge me i want you to think about what you said and look up the secrets of success and law of attraction. It helps me live my life. Maybe it can help yours.

  • @chino9377 Hes not dead yet look it up.

  • @JuicerMax

    I thought he died nvm.

  • @chino9377: Sorry, too blindy esotherical for my taste. ;)

  • @chino9377 We are all already dead.

  • @chino9377 The law of attraction is a metaphysical belief - some of the aspects of it are taken from actual science, but the general understanding of the science with it is incredibly flawed if not completely ignored. You shouldn't think that a metaphysical belief is something worth arguing for in any kind of intellectual discussion.

  • @Larwick

    Yeah in some ways it is.

    My point i attracted someone to reply to my youtube comment.

    Therefore law of attraction is awesome and it works unfortunately.

  • beautiful video by TTA. thank you for doing this. Get Well, Hitch.. you rock.

  • 38 reprehensible pathetic excuses for modern humans make me think it's a shame there's not a hell they can go to.

    You all should be ashamed of yourselves.

  • For Hitch:

    I'd rather live 50 years like a LION than 100 like a LAMB.

    My friend, you have lived more in the last 10 years than most do in a lifetime.

  • Your work isn't finished yet Hitch, so be a trooper and stay around untill it is! best wishes.

  • I love this video. Thank you for everything Hitch! We all love you!

  • Thank you Hitch, I love you so much!!!!

  • Im 39 yo. When I read your books I was awakened. I was a Catholic, a former seminarian. Now I am an atheist. You're an inspiration. Get well soon

  • You are a hero. You are an inspiration. You are my professor. You are bringing forward the next social evolution of our species. For you efforts, intellect, unwavering determination, for fighting the good fight while we go about our busy lives I send my love and hope that are now recovering a year on.
