Christopher and Peter Hitchens, throughout a long estrangement and recent reconciliation, have clashed in print on many issues. On April 3, 2008, the Hauenstein Center, with support from the Center for Inquiry and the Interfaith Dialogue Association, will bring the two together on a stage for the first time to debate numerous issues, from the Bible to the bomb.

Christopher Hitchens, one of the most controversial and compelling voices in Anglo-American journalism, has written twenty books, including biographies of Thomas Jefferson, Thomas Paine, and George Orwell, as well as scathing critiques of Henry Kissinger, Bill Clinton, and Mother Teresa. Most recently, he wrote the book on atheism, God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything, and edited The Portable Atheist: Essential Readings for the Nonbeliever. A contributing editor to Vanity Fair and a frequent commentator on C-SPAN, he also writes regularly for The Atlantic, The New York Times Book Review, The Nation, Harper's Magazine, Slate, and The New York Review of Books.

Peter Hitchens, one of Britain's most controversial journalists, blogs and writes a regular column for the Mail on Sunday. Formerly a long-time writer for the Daily Express, Peter was once asked by former Prime Minister Tony Blair to "sit down and stop being bad," after an aggressive press conference confrontation. Peter is author of The Abolition of Britain: From Winston Churchill to Princess Diana and The Abolition of Liberty: The Decline of Order and Justice in England. He has also written for The Spectator, The Guardian, and New Statesman.

[Luda88888]

Everyone will be given according to they faith. There is no other way and no men can change it. What you believe in creates your destiny and the place in the life after death. And there is a lake of fire in hell you like it or not.

@DamnControl2:

There aint no hell, mate.

When the romans invaded Europe, they used religion to threaten people - and it was TRUE, on this earth.

If someoen refused to work for god (Caesar), then they WOULD go to hell - cus they would be killed with a sword, or burned.

They twisted religion into being an enormous THREAT.

And Jesus, basically spoke of the Romans, as though THEY were the servants of Satan (Caesar).

Were they ?

Who knows ?

But they fitted the bill !

(and may still do)
