Hitchens: do you regard any of the world's religions to be false? Can you name one?
Craig: Islam
Hitchens: Is it immoral to preach a false religion to a babv?
Craig: I believe so.
Hitchens: If I was born in an Islamic nation would you rather have me be an atheist or a Muslim?
Craig: I have no preference either way.

Is Hitchens serious?
ReplyDeleteI think Craig's answer might have stopped Hitch's train on that one.
ReplyDeleteWould you prefer to get to a point?
ReplyDeleteYeah maybe... really wish I could see it.
ReplyDeleteAre there more rebuttals after this or no?
good answer!
ReplyDeleteLadies and Gentlemen, we have seen with Hitchens that The New Atheism = the pointless Atheism
ReplyDeleteHitchens is expecting him to get flustered and he's not biting
ReplyDeleteI think at this point Hitchens may just be trying to save some face...
ReplyDeleteI love the whole "Religion is child abuse" grabage that the new atheists are throwing out there. Could you tell the nice folks at home how it is not abusive to children to tell them that they have no objective worth, they are the chemical by-products of evolution, and that their lives are ultimately pointless? Furthermore, could you tell us how it is child abuse to tell kids that they are made in the image of God and thereby have inherent value and their lives are meaningful as part of the unfolding of a gracious God's plan?
ReplyDeleteHas anyone tried to read any of Hitchens' books?
