- Christopher Hitchens, contributing editor to Vanity Fair and the Atlantic Monthly, discusses his current paperback, "God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything." The book was a New York Times Bestseller and a finalist for The National Book Award. Program from Sunday, April 26, 2009.
As a Kurdish girl I'm thankful to this brilliant man. His solidarity towards Kurdish people really warms my heart. For anyone wondering about the pin on his blazer, it's the Kurdish flag.
Certainly a Human Being Being Human
Thank You for Enlightening Me
wow, I was wondering about that pin, thanks for the info!
the kurdish even though fought greatly against isis, they also released them back to europe
Bravo
In death, Hitchens gained immortality... in his writings, the internet, and in our memories. I never get tired of this guy.
Me either, BlackEpyon....I sometimes listen the entire day.
Me too mate me too
I knew very little about Hitchens until a couple of months ago, and discovering him is a revelation. Such a massive loss, and he'll be remembered for a long, long time.
BlackEpyon same here. I've been listening/watching this guy everyday for the past 6months. Amazing man who's given me confidence in my anti theist views. A true legend
I'm really sad that I didn't know him when he was alive , I was 8 when he died ... what a shame R.I.P
I come to hear to Christopher Hitchens when I feel my brain needs a boost!
CRETIN - learn to read !!!

Troll you definitely are !! Truth hurts doesn’t it about your imaginary friends ???
Try drinking some vodka. Worked for Hitchens.
No, you're a loser like Hitch was.
Hitch who pretends to know the bible as he screws up on it over and over again including what faith means biblically.
--"Faith is the surrender of the mind, it's the surrender of reason, it's the surrender of the only thing that makes us different from other animals. It's our need to believe and to surrender our skepticism and our reason, our yearning to discard that and put all our trust or faith in someone or something, that is the sinister thing to me. ... Out of all the virtues, all the supposed virtues, faith must be the most overrated”-- Christopher Hitchens
Now, look at what biblical faith really means that Hitch the liar didn't even look at:
Biblically, faith means trust. It's a trust by evidence seen. God asks that we prove things. To reason. To get knowledge. To study. God has nothing to hide. We develop trust from what is seen, and that which is not seen yet is trusted also because of the trust built up from what is seen. It's much like a human relationship. We don't trust much until a person has gained that trust from what is observed. The difference is though, God is not limited to human powers. He created us.
Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

Hitchens always went into evasive word antics to avoid key questions like how we got the creation of the universe.
Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God.
Life only comes from life. Law of biogenesis.
God is the reason for us and all we have.

Brevity is the soul of the wit.
It is so rare to have an interviewer asking interesting questions and letting the interviewee speak out his mind.

Yes the interviewer is very diplomatic about time

I wish Christopher Hitchens was still alive. I would have loved to hear his opinions on the circus that is currently happening before our eyes today.
This man changed my life
+IDKFA - God Mode Activated! I hear you, same here.
I could not agree more
Mine too buddy
Me too! I still have trouble watching videos of his last year. I love you Christopher Hitchens!
Couldn’t agree more with this statement!
Still pains me to see this incredible man gone. He was perhaps the greatest thinker of the last 30 years. RIP Hitch, I will miss your wit, wisdom and intelligence.
Jazzkeyboardist1 you are literally a broken record.
Jazzkeyboardist1 loser
@Jazzkeyboardist1 I agree with you. Ignore the blushing eye lid flapping fan boys. Most overrated 'public intellect' in modern history. The gushing fanboys can't really see through the posh accent and the dictionary swallowed words. He was entertaining and very watchable but this guy morally can't come close to Noam Chomsky. A genuine human being, not a social climbing, cocktail party going, name dropping, state spokesperson like Hitchens. Real intellects and radicals aren't celebrated and embraced by right wing neo con governments, they're hated by them.
Jazzkeyboardist1 Jesus Christ. You literally have commented a thousand times on videos about Hitchens and always complain about atheist. Are you by change a follower of Islam

They say we have free will. But wait there are rules(10 commandments). So we don’t have free will. Free will means just that with no strings attached. We have human desires look but don’t touch, smell but don’t eat.
@@MrGeorgewf did you think it wouldn't be noticed that you ignored all that I wrote? Are you really that stooo-pid? Yes. Now, since you chose the stooo-pid side by your own free will, decided to ignore God and His guidelines by your own free will, and decided to not take God's free salvation by your own free will, you have a very harsh ending coming to you by your own free will.

@@nosteinnogate7305 so for me to show how easy it is to crush Hitch, that is a bad thing to you. Hey, follow his garbage, you love it.
“It’s about me, so I can always make time for it” 🥰
I love him so much.
He was not only a great writer but he had an unbelievable memory
It has been said that what distinguishes the great is not so much IQ but their ability to recall and remember within context. Thus, the ability to show similarity as well as to make distinctions. That certainly describes Christopher Hitchens. The amazing consideration is the willingness of so many to accept so much less. I must say, one would be hard pressed to find a better clip than this to send someone who does not know of Christopher Hitchens. Or of the role of discourse too.
smartest guy to come out of oxford who can't claim to be part of Monty Python.
his memory is insane, especially for those hard middle eastern names as well as lengthy quotes from books. crazy
I love Hitchens but having just heard him struggle to remember how long he was married to his first wife, reading this is pretty funny
I'd forgotten that.
"Alcohol, ... it makes other people less boring" - Hitchens
Jazzkeyboardist1 Jazzzy Wazzy, who did you loose in the Iraq war? The one voted in by congress? Hitchens didn't start the war. The war was completely legal. What was declared illegal was the British handling of it. Hitchens's mum was not religious, so what does her suicide have to do with anything discussed in this video? It's a shame you lost someone you care about in that war, but you should blame the people who declared that war. I am prepared to debate you but only after you learn to speak like an adult. Thanks for reading, Jazzy Spazzy.
Also gives you cancer
@Jazzkeyboardist1 "all my comments are original" you claimed in another message.
LIAR
@Matt from Wii Sports have you heard jazzkeyboardists playing?
Check out his RUclips channel.
It's a thing of, well not beauty, more like the biggest stinkiest puddle of arse gravy you could ever imagine!
@Jazzkeyboardist1 That explains why Hitchens looks like a drunk who just got kicked out of a bar.
Our society will forever need the Hitchens perspective.
Up to each of us I guess!
What garbage!
I think he'd say Orwell matters more than ever considering the state of social media and what some call news.

A for effort, but this is just a pile of claims based on a book, the veracity of which is dubious at best
"People are sick of ordinary mammals who push us around because they think they have God on their side." Classic Hitch. Priceless.
People who use God as a tool should be punished. That being said it doesn't mean there is no God. Hitchens throws God out with the bath water.
@Philip Tooley It is religionist who plays the victim to get what they want eg there is a prayer room in most western airports.
@Philip Tooley Philip tooley there's still time to get on Noahs ark with the dinosaurs and baboons. And bring that born again piece of crap Burning Bush George with you.
@Jazzkeyboardist1 more ridiculous jumps from ridiculous to oh so dangerously unhinged
Jazzkeyboardist1 science has little to say on political decisions. No surprise an ignorant theist can’t even get that right.
"If he had been given an enema, he could have been buried in a matchbox." That one packs a punch right there.
That is EXTREMELY full of shit!!! Lol
Have to be honest, since hearing Hitch say that I've used it a few times myself 😁
The interviewer Brian Lamb is fantastic and let’s Hitchens speak and everything Hitchens would say was profound, deeply moving, and so thought provoking. He was a huge influence on me. R.I.P You fantastic man. ♥️
He did not look 60 -more like late 40s. The man was a legend.
it's amazing what being fat will do to your skin ;p
@@RhetoricalMuse honestly idk if thats sarcasm but stfu don't disrespect one of the few people on the planet that can confidently express the truth
Is a legend.
@@RhetoricalMuse
I’m sure your a real Adonis ...
Probably the heathy lifestyle hed led!! Haha. We all miss Hitch. Legend.
beautiful language just flows from him like a waterfall... I love his eloquence...He was a wonderful and special person
My favorite quote ever from hitch was during a debate when someone asked him if he'd prayed and without missing a beat he responded, " Once, for a hard-on."
He was a hateful cretin racially dividing this country beyond repair - and his "WIFE" ? What the hell was that ?
@@ErikVestville-yv9md He told the truth about a lot of things. Religious people are butthurt because of that.
@@ErikVestville-yv9md
No religious denominations have tried to destroy this country and now it’s time for us to eradicate your asses once and for all !!!
That is very beautifully put (“...like a waterfall”)! Such eloquence as Hitchens’s is the fruit borne by the tree of a lifetime’s prodigious, passionate, and engaged reading.
I found Christopher a year after he died. I was gutted that his brilliant mind was no longer with us, but thankful we can still listen to his words of wisdom.
I laughed hysterically when Hitchens regretted being so lenient on Falwell
“If he had been given an enema, he could have been buried in a matchbox.”
Choice words 😂
"I pity there isn't a hell for him to go to", truly epic line
Yeah, so badass. 🔥
It certainly indicates the essence of his personality. Angry and hate filled, bitter and malevolent at heart.
@@graterdeddly9527 If you were speaking about Falwell I'd agree with you.
@@Keira_Blackstone While I did not make a habit of watching Falwell, not my taste at all, the times he came on, I never heard him say a hateful word about anyone. Can't say the same about Hitchens, he wouldn't be living up to his reputation if he left the viewer without some bon mot from his black wit.
Look up "cretin" - then find a mirror.
It's always a pleasure to listen to hitchens
Sat very near this man on one of the last flights on Concorde. We shared a glass of Champagne while up at the front in the Aisle looking at the plane hitting 1200mph
"You suddenly think, yes maybe it is too early, but you can't wait until it's too late." Sadly, how prescient you were Mr Hitchens.
Ah, what the hell, just opened my new bottle of Johnny Walker Black poured myself a good shot on a tumbler and toasted the New Year 2022 in company of Hitchens, in my opinion one of the most versatile and enlightening speaker and erudite I’ve ever heard, long live his legacy, this JWB on you Christopher! 🥃 I miss you.
This man was so brilliant and I miss him so much and we sure could use his voice and opinion today
It's eerie to hear Christopher Hitchens talk about how he never expected to live this long, very shortly before he became ill.
His light is dearly missed in a time of quickly increasing darkness.....
Dear old Christopher, a genius, gentle, educated, kind hearted but most of all TRUTHFUL man.Wouldn't it be completely wonderful if the world was full...now....of world leaders such as him. Apart from my father, the most missed man in my life. May the spirit of Christopher Hitchens live on for a very long time.
No, he was just a loser.

Yet you can't prove the existence of your lord and savior.
Yet you call Mr. Hitchens is a liar in your view. Your entire worthless existence is based on blind faith and the unknown. I am just as confident that there isn't a God, as you're in God. It can never be proven, yet you make enemies of people who don't swallow the unproven. A court of law exists solely on evidence and jot hearsay, I believe in evidence and you can't prove to me God exists.
This great man is one of the major forces why I'm changing my mind about the religion that I grew up with. I miss Hitch!
Bong Manding I know what you mean...I was baptized Catholic just 6 years ago and now, after a lot of reading and watching debates and documentaries via the internet my mind has shifted completely. I now am an Atheist. (and proud to be one)
joydivisiongirl I was a kind of mushy agnostic with a tendency to stick up for religion before 'Hitch came into my life (for want of a better word). He changed my mind about absolutely everything, it's hard to convey just how much he did for me.
+LordHealey Same here.
2nd that... I regret that he mainly appealed 2 the intellectual crowd and not so much to the mainstream in life. His influence is growing though. Young people are growing less religious.
+Bong Manding I also have given up religion, after about ten years of giving religion my best effort. Doubts began to creep in, even from the beginning, and Hitchens put into words so many things that I had been feeling myself.
"If he could be given an enema you could bury him in a matchbox" genius 😂

Very nice of you to take the time to comment . Thank you
The only thing this man totally underestimated was the enormous impact RUclips would have on his legacy.

Now, look at what biblical faith really means that Hitch the liar didn't even look at:
Biblically, faith means trust. It's a trust by evidence seen. God asks that we prove things. To reason. To get knowledge. To study. God has nothing to hide. We develop trust from what is seen, and that which is not seen yet is trusted also because of the trust built up from what is seen. It's much like a human relationship. We don't trust much until a person has gained that trust from what is observed. The difference is though, God is not limited to human powers. He created us.

Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created.

Enlightened me in so many ways.
One of the greatest men to ever walked the earth.
His legacy will only grow as the rest of us catches up with his great mind.
Damn... when he talked about fatherhood at the start of the interview and how he was not that much involved, but wanted to make up for lost time. That hit hard... Died two years later. I'm sure the children would have had a true friend in him, as adolescents/grown-ups.
Remember when I read the sad news about his death, and look... another decade gone.
My second child was born April 13th, sharing her birthday with one of the greats.
Rest in peace, Christopher.
Too bad my birthday was the 8th and not a few days later lol
I’m weirdly honored to know that Hitchens would even want to live in the United States
You’d have to know how much of a bum he is in Portsmouth.
@@rokyericksonroks
Fanatics hate him, dude
Wonderful interview. Htchens is supremely candid and honest
He hated thinking and loved lying.
The 1LofT states that energy can't be created or destroyed, it can't happen naturally. One aspect of the 2LofT shows that the universe is winding down, usable energy is becoming less usable. It is clear creation had to be done supernaturally yet it is still denied because people are just too proud to accept that, among other things.
One of kind. A hero to many, including me. I miss the guy and find myself asking “what would Hitch say to this...” all the time.
I believe that Christopher Hitchens will be remembered as an explorer, pioneer who just on intellect and honesty, changed the thinking of millions in terms of religion. I have NEVER seen even one theist, Christian, pastor, priest, rabbi, Imam, creationist debate against Hitchens and not only win but seemed like children talking with adults. This is a time that we truly need the genius level knowledge, wisdom and wit of the iconic Mr Hitchens
Hitchens said he admired Obama's command of English when it comes to his writing. I can't imagine paying someone a higher compliment, considering the source.
WTF is the difference? You're an idiot. Idiots prefer style over substance. Obama was a disgrace.
If indeed he actually wrote them, He wasn't too great at speaking without an auto cue.

Rest easy: there's no such thing as eternal pain. Which is, in part, his point.
I wish he was here now, during these uniquely chaotic times. I would very much like to hear what he'd say.
This man has had a bigger positive impact on my life than any god ever has or will have. I always knew there was something iffy about religion, being born in a Catholic country didnt help, but it didnt take long for me to see past the lies with the help of this brilliant man.

@The Word "In the beginning was The Word".
SCIENCE: The Universe was smaller than a pin-point 13.8 BILLION YEARS AGO, and just ENERGY.
@The Word Why can't you package your comments?
Science is the proof, and if you've _ever_ flown anywhere, you've already accepted that. It has already predicted (using quantum theory) physical constants with incredible precision, and will continue to make such predictions into the far future. The only thing it cannot predict is what happened at or before the start of the universe.
Religion, being made up by humans to explain the universe _when nothing else was known_ is just a bunch of lies. It doesn't matter which religion.
And you are deluded. It's a real shame, but that's life. Either you work to discover reality (that's me) or you don't bother, and accept some two thousand year old horseshit (that's you). Good luck with that.
You should relax and accept the fact you are a homosexual, in spirit, if not in deed.
I've been happily married for fifty-two years, and I'm the grandfather of two beautiful grown-up grandchildren. You should be so lucky.
@The Word Bye.
The Word “science is a lie!” As he uses the internet on a computer. What a moron
He was such a beautifully eloquent speaker. Sadly missed.
What a gem of an interview. I would love to hear his take on present day events. Miss his voice.
Prophetic words from Hitch. R.I.P.
I still don't think I've fully come to terms with Hitchens' passing. Sam Harris said it all - "The man had more wit, style and substance than a few civilizations I could name." I often wonder what he would think about the prominent issues of today, like Pope Francis, for example, who so many are fawning over right now. We need more razor sharp contrarian thinkers like Hitch in the public square today.
Just imagine what he'd think now!
Didn’t this dick say that we should nuke other countries?
I’m familiar enough with Hitch that I don’t have to wonder.
Well, the loser is dead and wasted his life.

Hitchens always went into evasive word antics to avoid key questions like how we got the creation of the universe.
Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it.
We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God.
Life only comes from life. Law of biogenesis.
God is the reason for us and all we have.

Its rare to have both the gifts of Intelligence , and an ability to express complicated insights , in a way that that any attentive Individual can understand .Whats more , these insights and truths are accessible to us all , for as long as there is utube , and we are better off for them.
You have to love Brian Lamb and his bluntness at times, i.e. "How do you make your money?"
+bt10ant Where in the video was that?
+Nihal Sahu At 39:04 or so
The guest he has makes bluntness a pre requisite
Hitchens often openly loathed his interlocutors but you can feel the respect he gives to Brian Lamb, which is returned in kind. Lamb was an honest man with a zero tolerance for bullshit, so he was cut to order to interview Hitchens.
This is the first time I have seen or heard Mr Lamb & you can tell that he is a quality interviewer & that Hitch respected & seemingly liked him.
really wish to have met him. he was a great and noble man.
One the greatest or maybe even THE greatest in his field! I definitely miss him!
Finally a woman posts on here - even if it was 8 years ago lol
I absolutely loved this man. I could listen to him all day. I found him fascinating, intelligent, would have loved to have him sitting at my dinner table discussing whatever we choose to talk about. He is sadly missed. ❤
"part of the intellectual and educational arsenal of this country"... how could you not love this guy?
Hitchens is fascinating. This is one of the best interviews with this insightful man!
'If he'd been given an enema, he could have been buried in a matchbox'.. What a great line!
@Jazzkeyboardist1 Why 'admitting'.. does it matter?.. Tbh I think he made up the story about 2 tory ministers, most likely to appear a bit more edgy...
A beautiful mind has left us and no other man has been so influential in my thinking and liberation.
A great interview where we get to know Hitch a little more personally. Tragic that he was diagnosed with terminal cancer after this interview, particularly as he expressed the wish to go on forever. Although he went from living his best life to dying his best death and through the legacy of his various media, he will in a sense live forever. Bravo Hitch......
What an excellent thinker and a speaker Hitchens is ! So Inspirational.
The world is a darker place without this man ,thank you Christopher Hitchens- a true inspiration.
To his children- if you ever stumble upon this, please know- we loved him yet we never had the opportunity to meet.
I wouldn't want to be in a heaven that does not have Christopher Hitchens.
+lobsterfork If someday I'd be in a place where I could hang out with Hitchens, Bill Maher, John Lennon and Ricky Gervais - I'd be cool with that.
+Bong Manding You are my kind of person! Totally agree! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Well, you're in luck, then!
Clever
I'd love to see Hitchens reaction when he learns there is a God.
One of a kind... just wish I’d been stumbled on his brilliance whilst he was still around.
You can still be the loser he was.
Hitch who pretends to know the bible as he screws up on it over and over again including what faith means biblically.
--"Faith is the surrender of the mind, it's the surrender of reason, it's the surrender of the only thing that makes us different from other animals. It's our need to believe and to surrender our skepticism and our reason, our yearning to discard that and put all our trust or faith in someone or something, that is the sinister thing to me. ... Out of all the virtues, all the supposed virtues, faith must be the most overrated”-- Christopher Hitchens
Now, look at what biblical faith really means that Hitch the liar didn't even look at:
Biblically, faith means trust. It's a trust by evidence seen. God asks that we prove things. To reason. To get knowledge. To study. God has nothing to hide. We develop trust from what is seen, and that which is not seen yet is trusted also because of the trust built up from what is seen. It's much like a human relationship. We don't trust much until a person has gained that trust from what is observed. The difference is though, God is not limited to human powers. He created us.
Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

A lovely "chat"-with-questions by two men with mutual respect -- both so open and trusting.
Im saddened to live in a world without Chritopher Hitchens. The world is qorse for his passing
One of the greatest minds of the last 100 years. On the 10th anniversary of his death..I miss him.
Only great to losers like you.

It's too bad that I learned about Hitchens as late as I did. I would have loved to been able to meet him many years ago. His mind, his thoughts. Is manner of speaking. So much that I would have loved to have encountered.
Wow so knowledgeable person is Mr. Hitchens
I miss this man so much today. Christopher gifted many with insight, courage, and the patience to observe the world through a different lens - all while imbuing the future with curiosity.
If he were here today, there is no doubt in my mind that he would act as a herald of knowledge and free speech, and adamantly condemn our fallacious descent toward Trump-era fascism, non-science, and racism. He left us too soon.
This man changed my life profoundly
