You're an idiot:

Agnosticism - An assertion that it is impossible to know whether a god or gods exist or do not exist.

Atheism - A lack of belief in a god or gods, NOT A TRUTH CLAIM THAT GOD DOES NOT EXIST. GET IT RIGHT.

Again, you're an idiot, and so is Craig.

[SirArghPirate]

Demanding proof that something doesn't exist is nonsense, and it's strange that some people don't seem to understand that.

Dumbest video ever, go buy a 'philosophy for dummies' book. You either believe in a god out of faith like a theist or out of logic like a deist or you reserve judgement like an agnostic or you go all the way in stating the lack of evidence for 'god' makes it not true and are therefore an atheist.

@MrShoeguy Thank you for your valued input, but you are still mistaken. :)

[MrShoeguy]

@humanfly78 There is no word for anything as stupid as your definition of agnosticism, atheism is the belief that there is no god, and idiocy is the idea that a dumb fuck like you would know anything.

[1969Bourne]

This video is dishonest, evasive, misleading, and utterly bankrupt of integrity. Just like religion.

Aw. Did Hitchens say something wrong about the magical sky daddy? :-)

[funcpl2741054]

Craig offers a meaningless question. Essentially he asks "Why dont you beleive in my a-priori assumptions?' and then trying to force Hitchens to claim whether he actively or inactively rejects the assumption...the question is meaningless. Craig is not very bright so doesnt understand that rejecting assumptions dont really need further quantification.

[Fray2221]

Hitchens is trying to explain why it is a stupid distinction. Everything we believe, we believe on the balance of probabilities. I am almost completely certain that 9/11 was not an inside job, for example. I can't prove that 9/11 wasn't an inside job, but the theory to me simply doesn't make a whole lot of sense. This is how sane people think about things, and form beliefs.

@ilovenarwhales

There is nothing factual about your comment, hence my response. Perhaps you are a closet theist.

This last bit doesn't even relate to the video or the comment I made. Where exactly are you going with this?

EDIT- Doesn't take a genius to realize I'm NOT the uploader..
