Hitchens reads form "god is Not Great"--Hitch on Pigs.

Chapter three of "god is Not Great"

Why Heaven Hates Ham.

I originally posted this video as a response to a bigoted Christian's video titled, "Atheists are Ignorant Pigs." That video has been pulled by YT due to terms of service violations.

Since that video was pulled, some of the things in my response no longer made sense, but I still liked the overall video content. So this is an edited repost of my original response. Now this is simply Hitch reading his book.

Please buy "god is Not Great." You will not be disappointed!

Note: I did not agree with YT's actions in pulling "Atheists are Ignorant Pigs." I despised the video maker and his message, but I fully support his right to say what he feels. I support free speech, even if it is hate speech. In fact, I think his hate speech was good for us, in that his spewing of evil nonsense helps raise awareness of unfair stereotypes, and unabashed bigotry.

It's time to draw a line in the sand. I'm tired of reasonable Americans & Europeans having to adjust to the demands of fanatics who have immigrated to such a terrible place as HERE, then demand that We conform to Their way of life; let them complain and bitch about pig characters & references; if they commit violence over it, arrest them and put them in jail. But stop trying to be "reasonable" and making adjustments for them; the more you do it, the more they will push.

@ChuckHippy would I be a "recently voiced"athiest if I wrote a book about my atheism? would that imply that I wasn't atheist before writting a book on it? a very dumb thing to say on your part. Hitchens has been himself all his life and is always expanding his understanding of things .

Hitchens is completly wrong here btw, pigs are not very closely related to humans .

A rat is way closer, the reason why pigs are used for medicine is becasue they have roughly the same size as us.

both dogs ,cats and camels are closer to us than pigs infact.

@SauceMystery

Hardly an endorsement of religion, though.

pigs are possibly the most delicious animal and therefore the most tempting, a test from god

Swine flu has happened before in the past only it had a different name back then, Spanish flu. has nothing to do with Spaniards or pigs, just the name they slapped on it. and as for "regular flu" to which strain of the virus do you refer? the seasonal flu shot you get is based on past trends of many diffrent strains of the virus and the board of health decides which strain is "most likely" to be a threat this year. this does not prevent you from getting another strain of flu. education is key!
