Let's say Hitchens said 'population X' makes lousy plumbers. Then he hires someone from population X to do some plumbing. Explaining that his plumber has some new technique would not change the fact that Hitchens was a hypocrite.
Science is founded on the belief that nature obeys laws because there is a Lawgiver over nature. It has always been modernist atheists who are irrational regarding their beliefs about science; this is why postmodernist atheists are more consistent in denying the laws of nature, because they deny the Lawgiver.
From your reply I am assuming that Hitchens said Christians make lousy doctors. I have not been following him enough to know that. If he said there is a contradiction between Christianity and science then he is wrong. However, I don’t see that that makes him a hypocrite. It simply makes him wrong. I also don’t think that him going to a doctor who has an experimental treatment after all other treatments have failed makes him a hypocrite. The fact the doctor is a Christian is immaterial.
