"The universal encomia for the departure of Christopher Hitchens, the most celebrated atheist in the world,.."

Depends on how you measure "celebrated"....

Hitchens was not remotely as celebrated as atheists Joe Stalin, Mao Tse-tung, Kim Il Sung or Pol Pot.

That may be attributed to the fact that Hitchens didn't engage in mass killings (or genocide) - unlike the individuals (above) you mentioned.
