Lord, he was as imperfect as all of us. Show him Your mercy and invite him into the Kingdom he so long denied to himself. R.I.P., Hitchens.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

His finest moment =

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/354470.stm

“War criminal, criminal psychopath and rapist” are descriptions of Bill Clinton that you won’t find in the Starr report.

They are all charges made by Christopher Hitchens whose new book on the US president, No One Left To Lie To, is riding high in the American bestseller lists.

Sad. 62 y/o is young.

Hitchens was diagnosed with metastasized esophageal cancer in June 2010. He told NPR that while doctors say he has a chance of remission, his chances of living longer than five years are slim.

I found some of his writing interesting... And he died on my birthday so I’ll always remember that... Hope he found God first.

He was an honest and respectful debater and even though I disagreed with him, I did enjoy his style and his thoughtful arguments. I hope he made a death bed conversion. RIP.

R.I.P., Hitch. A formidable intellect (though sometimes galloping in the wrong direction) and a rapier wit.

I’ll miss The Hitch. I wish I’d had the opportunity to have a few drinks with him. I’ll pray for his soul.

Christopher pleased me at times. He intrigued me at times. He frustrated me at times. He angered me at times. In the end he left me without his voice, for all time.

I am not amused!

Good-bye Mr. Hitchens.

I had the privilege of listening to him give a speech in College sometime around the 08 election. Did I agree with everything he said, no. Still, it was one of the best speakers they had and I respected him for standing up of his beliefs.

During the Q&A session he destroyed some of the liberals arguments, particularly on 9/11, terrorism and Iraq.
