I think God would not necessarily agree with your statement.

Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on them. “
THAT is God’s wrath. Are you God?
I agree with Guenevere, I’m not going to go all self-righteous. Hitchens made a choice and it was a sad one.
It’s a sad thing when someone goes to Hell. even an enemy of God:
Ezekiel 18:23 “Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign LORD. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?”
