At 4:12 it’s so ironic. “In fact one of my occasional silly thoughts is I wish I was suffering for a good cause. A cause larger than myself.” He goes on to say suffering for the liberty of humanity would be worth it. He is saying he wished for something that he spent his entire life attempting to refute. God sent his son to suffer and die for our sins in order to redeem and liberate humanity. Hitchens spent his entire life attacking that and even mocked it at times. And here on his death bed he grasped it for a brief moment, of how wonderful it would be. So tragic and sad.

Rich Man and Lazarus 19 “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. 20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores 21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’ 25 “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’ 27 “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, 28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’ 29 “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’ 30 “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’ 31 “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’”

when you find it disgusting that someone is praying for your eternal soul, praying that you reconcile with God so that you may see the gates of heaven, how much hate for God do you need in your heart that you will hate what someone does out of love?

ugh, when I heard that people were praying for Hitchens, I threw up in my mouth a little - mostly because I knew they would be praying that he would repent or some ghastly idea like that. What a horror to spite some one with prayer in their death throws. I've heard this directed at me too - people have said they will pray for me. And I ask them, please don't. But they are going to do it anyway without my consent and against my better reason. They that pray for you are going to make sure you know they are praying that you join their gods and churches. And honestly I don't know why they wouldn't - that's what their screeds tell them to do. But it's obviously grotesque and toxic and incredulous.

The tool you used as a sword against God. Was turned by the creator in to your destruction, suffering and downfall. Now you will be crying for forgiveness & mercy from that very same Almighty God you mocked. But you are now somewhere, where there is no return and no do over. Today you realise for eternity how insignificant you were.

You just proved his point - you religious nuts don’t care about altruism, just being morally superior to others. You use God for your own ego, rather than for betterment. Hitchens would be laughing in his grave because even in death he can still trigger you. But of course, there’s no life after death, so I’ll laugh for him 😂

ever since we come to this side of our living projject we, become subjets to those that decide when our time is next, according to our behavior, in one way or another, as for myself, I have been already 20 times next to my death ,point starting from sicknesses to incredible fatal survived accidents, and as I am writing this note I may have a few days more to live due to my finacial conditions, I wonder ifnow, I have reched my time, so Dear Richard you may notbe a believer in this existence , but , you must know that Divinity decided that you had to start all over again, with less pepper and more salt. I also take thid opportunity to say good by to this incredible world, many rich people would need my health, but I must die because I don't have their wealth. but I believe strongly in Divinities, where Christ is King.

Haven't seen a bear in the wild or a lion in Africa get cancer. Sounds like your prophet hitchens had thousands of books, was a master in debating, denying there was intelligent design and promoted that we were the result of a cosmic accident. But he himself smoked and drank his way to God damned high levels of irreversible cancer and died from it. If he have had the intellect he would have known what substances to put in his body and what not. If a man who doesnt even know how to live this material life without getting sick or cancer, how the hell can I trust his viewpoint on the ineffable and on life after death and the continuation of conciousness. Ha no fucking way. Good luck, hope your path of religius scientism gets you cancer also.
