People like Hitchens hate God, pure and simple. It is fallen man's arrogance and pride in him that is responsible. So he wants to replace the Bible as a moral guideline with "literature"? God forbid.

Just think, what is one of America's most popular books of modern times? How about American Psycho?

LOL. As if "literature" preceded the word of God. What a doofus.

Hitchen's sappy logic is on a par with those who say that "art" is the loftiest of values.

As Joan Baez once corrected Gloria Steinem, "Art doesn't feed the hungry or prevent people from being murdered in their sleep."

And literature is only words in a pleasing order. Scripture is the breath of God.
