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.
Extremely well said, Viking2002. Thank you.
No thanks necessary. He was a brilliant human being; just because I did not agree with him on so many issues did I consider myself a better man, nor would I wish him to be judged more harshly than the rest of us. It's my hope that we may all pass the same muster, and see him, fit as a fiddle, one the other side, with stories to tell us that we can only imagine.
"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."
