Hitchens: God’s Not That Great—Compared to Me.

Christopher Hitchens was a wonderful polemicist—first rate—and as good as Nietzsche but without the madness born of syphilis.

Christopher Hitchens was a wonderful polemicist—first rate—and as good as Nietzsche but without the madness born of syphilis.

I hope the Almighty gave Hitchens the personal revelation he demanded all his life, and in the end earned. My prayer is that this prideful-but-delightful prick admitted his errors when confronted by the Creator and offered a PR job in Heaven.

But getting Hitchens to finally believe would be like God making a Paul out of a Saul. That was the miracle that allowed a great persecutor of Christians to join— and Captain — the team.

More likely (and tragically), Hitchens would instinctively put on trial the Revealed Reality—which he apparently never saw—for not doing enough.

Maybe he made it in—I pray he did.

Best,

Guy
