It’s like every Hitch “no” adds strength to me❤️❤️💪

It’s nice watching this and not being shouted at by Turek.

Jesus Christ this is a terrible radio show. I'm going to ask you "but uh what if God though?" 11,000 times in a row and then go "Oh" when you don't think that's brilliant.

Dude this is the worst fucking radio show put upon voice I've ever heard

Yoo who is this interviewer he is hilarious

Hitchens hands him his dumb ass over and over and over and over and over and over...

I think back in the days before, (nights before) lights, when we sat around an open fire at night and looked up at the sky at night, our families told stories about what they saw in the stars and they eventually turned into Gods, both good and bad. Some had horns and tails, of course, and I'm sure this is where our gods and devils came from in the beginning.

Host: does that sound like you Sir? CH: No it sounds like St.Paul 🤣😅😂☠️, hitchslap

Interviewer sees nothing wrong with his points. Says a lot

I guess, at the end, the host thought that he got Hitchens by getting him to " confess" his hedonistic lifestyle. Turns out that the host just got immortalized as Hitchens' punching bag

Hitchens knows the bible better than this guy

Ok, Hitchens wasn't a scientist, or a philosopher, or a theologian, but he was a decent rhetorician, and did camp putdowns like nobody's business; McGrath on the other hand, despite his 'qualifications' had absolutely nothing to say about the God debate. He would speak at such length and say absolutely zero. Unbelievable.

I love the annoyance you can hear at 9:14, hahahaha

Thanx… I love this man…its a shame he has passed…very intelligent and extremely wel spoken…….not Talking bout Frank Turek btw😂

These words are proven true and with evidence today

Brilliant!

this is comedy gold. I’m surprised Hitchens even bothered.

I'm not sure if I'm heading for heaven hell purgatory or oblivion but I'll go to my grave quiet certain that despite the horrors of this world and history and apparent indifference of the universe it's an incredibly beautiful and awe inspiring place even when I'm too stupid to appreciate it and that love is real and that humans are fallen yet often inspiring and heroic and noble and that even the smartest most articulate of the atheists haven't really got a clue

What a perfect rebuttal to precisely the kinds of things Ayaan Hirsi Ali started saying earlier this year. Hitchens comes right out and says it, albeit not in so many words: Islamism will not be defeated by turning the other cheek, so how on earth does the adoption of the faith that espouses this notion help us combat it?

Gods are definitely NOT great! Let’s grow up, shall we?!

I so miss Christopher Hitchens. The insight, humor and razor sharp approach to debate.

Thanks for this. There are so many debates with Hitchens that would be so much better with the blathering drivel from other guy edited out. {:o:O:}

Will never get tired of Hitch in this life. Absolute legend!

What value has half a debate? Why is the counterargument of an Oxford Professor deleted from this? Such censorship diminishes the case that CH makes. No one seeking truth or understanding would listen to only one side of a debate.

Thanks for the upload, Hitch is the man, son of man.

Criminality is higher in the US whatever point of view you want to look at it from. Same on homeless number. I live in spend but spend sometime in the US every year

I love how this sounds like a parody of Christian talk shows - but it's real 🤣

Hitchens is correct... Only a SLAVE could want this to be true

Hitch is the fucking man!

You couldn't include a picture of the actual evangelical radio host speaking? WTF is this?

"does that sound like you, sir?" "No, it sounds like St Paul" 😂

Hitchens...a loss to humanity and a personal hero of mine.

What a brilliant and brave man, no one can say it so bluntly and clearly as Cristopher Hitchens!

How does anyone manage the psychological process of believing in supernatural phenomena? No one has ever been able to talk me through how to do it. They just expected me to somehow get on and do it. I can swim, ride a bike, do long division, bake a cake, write a poem, and i got guidance on all of these challenges, but how to 'believe' in supernatural religious beings? - no. I'm 71 years old and still in the dark on how its done. Reality is clearly already full to the very brim being itself, how am I supposed to invoke or conjure an angel or a devil and somehow insert it in here. Trying to do so would mean breaking the infinite miniscus of the continuous moment which we all dodge about in. I just cannot see how believers manage to do it. By the way, i was reared in Northern Ireland, where believing in supernatural religious phenomena was freighted with other dangerous layers of meaning.

Thanks for posting this. I've been on a Hitch kick lately and usually fast forward to the 'good' parts as a matter of habit all the time. ☮️👍

The Hitch was masterful at getting his religious opponents to express their childish make-believe with maximum detail, so we get to observe the entire animal.

The A Moment let's relax and enjoy a genius at Play I am Capt Jester Moon of The good Ship The Wizard of Sily There is no gods seen in my foxhole for 42 yrs Failed suicide 14 yrs ago and PTSD for 42 yrs Thx again god I have to go now and enjoy a stroll in The Park 🎉 Stay Safe Stay Free Keep Listening ❤

The original date, please.

Terrifyingly accurate description of Christianity.

I'd love to watch the whole debate...

When I lived in America it amazed me that they WANTED me to have a religion, and they could not understand that I believed in NOTHING but science and truth...

How did Mr McGrath get through that event without having to get up to pee several times for as much water he was drinking?

Yes, Christopher has it right. It is clear, and there are reams of evidence throughout multiple branches of biological science, how ‘Social Behavior’ in wide numbers of higher species is to a greater or lesser extent an evolutionary adaptation that helps the survival of the group, and thus the individuals. Acts of clear altruism, where demonstration of care for others, cooperation, pack behavior, generosity, self-sacrifice, and even forward-thinking, demonstrate values that seem innate to the majority within that species. From this reality it can be determined how our tendency towards moral behavior is an inherited evolutionary adaptation that we’ve discovered improves our chances for survival. On top of this is our rational analysis of how a structured and regulated society allows us to function better than a society built on chaotic anarchy would provide. This doesn’t mean there aren’t many among us who try to push the limits of moral and ethical behavior for their own benefit. Some of this anti-social behavior can be attributed to poor environmental influences, and various degrees of mental illness, such as psychotic behavior. People have free will to choose their behavior. It's clear how so many Christians do what The Church has done for centuries - deny the reality that science is our only method that actually searches for evidence that reveals 'truth'. Faith is by definition - a CHOICE to believe in that which there isn't sufficient evidence to claim is 'fact'. (Otherwise it would not be called 'faith' but instead 'fact', which it clearly cannot do...) I get tired of religious proponents claiming to have 'the truth' because their faith tells them so, and all the evidence from the natural world points to completely different answers...

Frank Turek is arguably the worst mainstream apologist working, and that's from a very target-rich environment.

"I'm not looking for consensus, baby. I'm just not in the mood." I'm going to use that.

I guess the real issue is that Man's never been able to accept his own mortality, and accordingly has always been willing to go to any length to soothe his anguish and horror at the thought of death and total and eternal annihilation. Our brain's developed itself in amazing ways, some of which have backfired on us. The Western world's just started the long trip to emancipation from God, when we can accept and live with the fact that we're likely to be only primates - highly sophisticated as we can be - and mere mortals. Science has enabled us to swallow less and less from religion. The day might come when we swallow nothing at all. I say "might" because I'm not sure human beings will still be around. That's the way I personally see it. Like everybody else, though, I hold no truth and I don't know if there might be anything out there, anything "supernatural." I also have to say that I know plenty of wonderful people who know how to keep what's good in religion and get rid of what's not, and are much better human beings than I am. We have to admit that many of Jesus of Nazareth's teachings are still the best human beings have in terms of ethics. There's one thing I didn't like about Hitchens and I don't like about Dawkins, and it was spelled out wonderfully by the great Stephen Fry who once amicably reproached his friend Dawkins for lacking "the Oxford Manner, the ability to play with ideas gracefully." I wish people like Hitchens and Dawkins didn't say things like "you'll realise how stupid your question is." Like the rest of us, they aren't entitled to disrespect.

his arguments are so convincing that only the least gifted would disagree. This unfortunately includes most of the faith based

Wallahee! Religion was invented when the first scoundrel met the first fool.

I say thank God, then i say immediately after, and i don't believe in that guy, when i hear someone else thanking god i also say to them, you don't believe in that guy do you, 🖕, ive watched enough Hitchens videos to have a great argument.

Modern atheism is just bigotry with a thin veneer of intellectualism. It's fundamentally based on a failure to learn history, logic, and philosophy. You have to laugh at people with no epistemology trying to make moral claims. 😂 Intelligent people can take atheists seriously as soon as they are willing to define the criteria of an existential proof for a deity. Other than that, there's no reason to even treat them as intellectuals, especially since they themselves lack the common human decency to treat different views with respect. Atheists are people who think the things that they make up are superior to the things they claim that other people made up. 😂 Christian: God gives my life meaning. Atheist: That's stupid. God is just made up. Christian: Then what gives your life meaning? Atheist: I make up my own meaning. Christian: 🤦
