Any way you slice the apple, Christopher Hitchens was respected and probably loved. He was an honest man and I hope he is at peace with his soul. Godspeed to him and I will say a prayer for him as that is my belief.
This is incongruous. If Christopher was right that he has simply ceased to exist (no soul, just oblivion). If Christopher was wrong then there is no way he could be at peace. So what do you believe?
