No, it's an inference BASED on an assumption. Obviously Hitchens doesn't believe this happened, because he doesn't believe there is such a thing as heaven, or a heavenly overseer.
The assumptions are those being made by his opponent. It's only fair to draw inferences from these unsupportable assumptions and unverifiable claims. After all, I'm just as much an authority on the 'afterlife' as is D'Souza - neither of us have any grounds to be believed.
Good point about Hitchen's and assumptions. However, Dinesh is not making assumptions either. He states beliefs based on the evidence of the credibility of the Scriptures. He believes the testimony of Paul, Matthew, Peter, John and James, the brother of Christ. Paul wrote that Christ appeared resurrected to more than 500 people, "most of whom are still living..." 1Cor. 15:6 (Go see for yourself, he seems to say). I guess, it's whether or not you believe the Scriptures. I think they're legit.
Im getting sick of watching Sam Harris videos where people think they are smart for saying "oooo its ben stiller".
How come no one has watched any of these videos, especially just after hitchens asks about the life span of humanity, and hasnt commented that dinesh looks AND dresses like "penfold" from danger mouse?
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed but, I could easily discern several assumptions Hitchens just put forth about the beginnings of man. Building his straw man. But don't get me wrong- I actually like Hitchens. I just don't agree with him, that's all.
I agree Princessdiana...its about time that religion got ridiculued into non-existence! These videso will show the obvious idiocy otherwise called religion/god.
Awsome
