Crackpot? Perhaps. Terrorist? Certainly.

Roger Clough' argument here is close to the old "go to hell if ..."  terrorist argument. 
The worst authoritative argument of all.


To save Roger a bit, there is some poetry there, and I can be happy to see Christopher 
Hichens dancing in Hell, (I hope there is also a bar, now), especially if is is in the 
company of Logic.

I think logic is more like the cutest Devil's worst enemy (Frankly).

Roger, remind me never to get you angry. Hitchens was a genuine good guy, but 
sometimes annoying. He did believe in freedom to think and choose, and like a 
lot of journalists, liked to gain attention.  He was cynical, but so are many 
of us. Furthermore, he did do things that the political progressives don't do, 
and that's take on mad Mullahs in public arguments, and was, for one, not just 
picking on the Christians as so many Atheists, because they fear confrontations 
with Islamists, rather then demure Christians. He did get in a fight in Syria, 
against the Syrian National Socialist Party, while visiting, there, several 
years back. That should count for something, unless you believe his statements 
have any validity? In other words if you wish to punish enemies of Jesus, I 
would say there are far, worse, people to toast then, poor, Hitchens. if there 
was a Devil and no God (Gnosticism?) Hitchens would have been first in line to 
sign up for the fight against him.
