@RonSafreed Why do you keep posting these same, long-winded, grammar-poor, comments over and over again and again and again, on so many religion-related videos? (mine, others, etc.)??

The Jewish people are intertwined with the Bible if there were no Jewish people, Judaism, Hebrew language Jewish culture, Jewish cuisine,Jewish music, Jewish contributions to society, Jewish history of 4000 years. When an atheist says that the Bible is a fairy-tale, then the Jewish people&everything about are also fairy-tales. Atheist beleive that Jewish history is flawed but what is their true history atheist? Also what about the 2000 year history of Christianity? Everyone else is beleivable.

There is another aspect of religion of the Bible than the Judaism/Christianity&excisted in various cultures into the 19th&20th centuryFirst in the Bible in Genesis, Adam thru Abraham&really to Moses Job in the book of Job lived centuries before Abraham but had the same God Cornelius in the book of Acts was neither Jew/Christian nor a pagan,heathen,or infidel but was "devout". This devout monotheism is older than Judaism's 4000 years& it was the first religion in all cultures in early historyFYI.

Europeans&Orientals have 2 things in common, a high degree of atheism in both populations&a very low birthrate below replacement levels.Both groups are forcast to decrease drastically during this 21st century, especially the whites. Blacks&muslims are exploding&there is not much atheism amoung them&there looks like their is not going to be any mass conversions soon.Why atheist have no large families?Black Africa will be 25% Arabs 10%, other blacks&other muslims will add but whites only 8% by2060

John Wycliffe1330-1385 who translated the Bible from Latin to the early middle English in 1382 beleived that the Bible should be in the tongue as well as in the hands of the masses. In 1442 his remains were dug up&a trial was held condemming what he had done. His bones were burned to powder&dumped in a river. I read his lifestory&have the book. Over 1000 years the Bible was under lock&key&many clergy as well as all laity had no access. Evil people in high places were responsible for this thing.

The Bible has only been accessible to the common man less than 500 years. William Tyndale 1498-1542 was the first to mass publish the Bible for the masses using the printing press in 1525. He snuggled them to England from Belguim It cost a common man a week's wage He was a wanted man who was caught,tried&executed in Brussels. It took 10 months to handwrite a Bible Tyndale spoke 9 languages I read his lifestory&have the book For over 1000 years the Bible was under lock&key&many clergy no access.

Man has 3 parts body/soul/spirit. Man is in a fallen state aging/disease/death works in the body, man's soul is lost&man is spiritually dead.The difference between the soul&spirit is like am/fm in radio. The soul is the am frequency&the spirit is the fm frequency, however the spirit in man is dead so men cannot pick up what lies beyond the 4 dimentions of time/space This is where the Christian "born again' experience comes in, to revive the spirit in man.True Christians are spiritually alive.

@RonSafreed You say "atheism/evolution" those are not the same thing, at all. I admit that I am not an expert on the USSR, however, one thing I have to say on the subject in regard to your comment is that in such situations, and there are other examples, one reason religion is attacked is because those in power want to establish the state as religion. This would be a case of atheism used for an external purpose: the establishment of the state as the religion.

@RonSafreed The church was reinstated at around '36, though...

Forgive me if I belabour the point here, but in this discussion of love, Hitchens possesses this overwhelming, smouldering sensuality.
Why? His eloquence, his pose and poise at the podium, the loose tendrils of golden hair, the unbuttoned shirt, and his humour -- while standing in front of a wall of books and discussing love -- it's all just irresistible. And then there's his golden voice...
Smitten am I! (Particularly around 3:44 and 4:50)
