Hitchens is an atheist. So what? Does that negate the validity and logic of his political arguements? I hope your intellect is not as stunted as your posts imply.

I hate him because he's a communist. I hated him when he was a writer for the Nation and opposed the first Iraq war.

You hate him, right? Okay.

1 John 2:9 - He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.

1 John 2:11 - But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

1 John 3:15 - Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.

Hate. Be careful.

Hitchens is entertaining.

Sometimes I can look beyond what I don't like.

I do the same with Vanessa Redgrave as an actress.

but I can't with most

bttt

[zipper]

Yeah I heard him launch into Mother Teresa one morning on C-SPAN's morning show. You would have thought she was some kind of mafia boss if you didn't already know who he was talking about.

I enjoy many of his columns and appearances, but will never trust him.

Hitchens is an atheist. So what?"""

You didn't read the article, did you? He's not just an atheist, he's a communist who seemed to sympathize with the murder of christians by Stalin's henchmen. Don't call me "stunted" when your post betrays that you don't know what you're talking about.

[churchillbuff]

You exhibit something analogous to Stokholm syndrome - worthipping people who hate you. If you're really a Christian, as your home page proclaims, then Hitchens finds you disgusting.

He told the Guardian on May 31, 2005, “I can’t stand anyone who believes in God, who invokes the divinity ... I mean, that to me is a horrible, repulsive thing.”

It's quite curious when someone bows and scrapes and fawns over another person who sneers at him. That's what you're doing by lionizing this christian-hating leftist.

[Peach]

Why am I not surprised that you have posted this and then made derogatory comments about someone who supports the war. And then defended Buchanan. LOL

Birds of a feather and all that.

[Peach]

You nailed it. Well done.

I would like to see him delivered and saved. I pray for him. It's surely is not easy walking around hating God and his people. It is for the likes of him (as well as all of us) that Jesus died. I use to be a Christian mocking atheist because I thought Christians naive and simple but I never hated them. I actually wished that I could be so "stupid" as to gain comfort from a fairy tale. If you don't believe that God exist what is the point of hating those that do?

Whaaaa! HITCHENS is such an effective speaker for Freedom and Liberty. He makes us Moveon.org "conservatives" look like the mentally incompetent isolationists wannabees we are. WHAAAAA, we must tear him down to justify our own pathetic inadequacies as thinker. WHAAA! What a bunch of pathetic losers the Moveon.org "conservatives" are. Cannot argue the merits of the case so you steal a tactics for your fellow travelers on the Hysteric Left and attempt to assassinate a man's character instead. Tactics of scum, not intellectuals. Shame on you clowns.

[MNJohnnie]

yet Hitchens - an open bigot

Yet the wrongly named Churchillbuff, an open isolationist political bigot, is still allowed by Free Republic to continue to post. Perhaps the standard you claim to advocate should be applied TO you? Would you care for that?

[MNJohnnie]

Nailed it? Not even close. Here is what this "article" is saying.

[Pharmboy]

Hitchens is half Jewish, so that might have gotten him in there.

[MNJohnnie]

Ah yes Religion, the last refuge of the bankrupt political ideologue. Unable to defeat Hitchens ideas on the merits, the Neo-isolationist of the Moveon.org "conservatives" suddenly discover RELIGION, as a rational to cling to their intellectually bankrupt Isolationist dogma. Pathetic and weak even for your lot.

[Bellflower]

I am not an isolationist but those that are do not need to be called names. Because you are against it you accuse those who are for it of needing to be thrown off from FR. You are not supporting what you believe on it's merits but rather you are slamming and smearing your opposition with baseless comments.

I like CH but am saddened by some of the things he has written. This article is pointing out what he has written and has said to prove a point, that he should not be looked up to by conservatives. CH is a communist and proud of it. He has said terrible things about those that believe in God. If you are an atheist does that mean you have to be bigoted against those who are not? Since when do conservatives champion someone who loves communism? CH has come out on the right side of some issues but that does not make him someone we should necessarily approve of. You may disagree but please do so in a civilized and constructive way.

Wouldn't it be better if you debated your opposition to isolationism intelligently it's merits rather than "demonizing" those who believe it is what is best for this country?

Thanks for posting.

>>>>>I am a Reagan conservative and worked for him when he ran for Gov.

>>>>>>I will support Hitchens over Buchanan any day.

Do you agree with Christopher Hitchens that Lenin was "a great man?" That Leon Trotsky "always was a prophetic moralist?" That Ronald Reagan was "dumb as a stump" and a "cruel and stupid lizard?" Do you hate anyone who believes in God, the way Hitchens does? Did you even read the article?
