Christopher Hitchens - Discussing religion on Radio Open Source [2007]

May 18, 2007.

To the sometimes solemn literary cottage-industry of neo-atheism, Christopher Hitchens — with his manifesto: God is not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything — brings his famous English-school-boy wit, come to full blossom now in the great American music hall. Of the late Jerry Falwell, Hitchens told Sean Hannity this week, “If they gave him an enema he could have been buried in a matchbox.” On The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, plugging the new book, Hitchens opened with the line that the most over-rated virtue is faith, defined as “believing the most stuff with the least evidence…” Of his new enterprise, he added: “If you can call somebody a man of faith, or ‘faith based,’ it seems at the moment like a compliment. I’d like to change that.”
