Christopher Hitchens describes the Pope as an 'elderly criminal'

Write him a letter if you wish ...
Hitchens is as dumb as a brick.
Bellicose atheists are a dime a dozen. They wither like the grass of the field. There is no joy or contentment in an angry life spent in stamping one’s feet and spitting in the eternal ocean that is God. The awareness of mortality is one of the punishments for atheism.
Christopher Hitchens is indeed an unusual character. He’s a 61 year old atheist-socialist. I suppose he’s famous because of his outspoken atheism, but he’s not particularly good even at that, picking Mother Theresa as one of the targets of his invective.
His recommendations and denunciations should be of no concern to Christians of any stripe. Those who would attempt to bolster their case with his ideas haven’t spent enough time considering whether they want to be on Hitchens’ side in any debate.
I’m sorry he has cancer. If it takes his life, he’ll discover shortly thereafter his mistakes about the reality of God.
The quicker this jerk is in hell, the better.
The catholic church covering up pedophile priests. No way.
Some lives are without doubt a waste of precious resources.
This hitchens fellow is a prime example.
Blaming the Pope for the sexual abuse in the Church is like blaming himself for his cancer.
So what does this guy think of MANBLA?
I enjoy listening to most of Hitchens’ ruminations (even though I may not agree), but he has a decidedly nasty bent at times. I myself wonder from time to time when that old bastard Kissinger is going to kick it though.
Lord, please open this man’s eyes and heal his spirit. I ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen
Those are some very sad eyes.
That would explain the life view he feels compelled to share with the rest of us...
Christopher is a secular humanist.I met a few on Free Republic and they are very nice.My guess is he already wrote the Obits and I say to Christopher -Go for it.Print them anyway.I love passion in a person but do not agree with him. Prayers for this Soul.
