Corrupt governments and power structures are what lead to Jesus' cruxifiction. So I disagree fundamentally with government intervention as a means to Catholic Social teaching. We need to care for environments and the poor. But it has to be a voluntary moral framework. Not a government program where citizens and belivers are forced to contribute...

Our planet’s still cooling, said Mr Hitchens, 10 years ago, imagine the climate change warriors could have heard him saying that?😂

Animals and plants don't have the concept of God and they have better sense of morality than humans.

50:16 Goebbels was excommunicating for …

Dr. McGrath here so eloquently and beautifully held up the truth that is the Christian faith in Jesus Christ.

I do not understand that document, because the religious obligation of citizens was ruled out in many countries since the 19th century with liberalism.

Hitchens was magnanimous in arguing with people who were obviously stunningly ignorant of history, science, and devoid of common sense. All theists indeed are a waste of space. Ignorant humorless nullities.

A great man, one of the Brights.

This discussion proves that even well educated persons from Oxford can hold ridiculous and bigoted ideas. Hitchens is brilliant, as usual.

Christopher Hitchens was a pathetic anglo-saxon turd. An alcoholic bully who believed that science could provide all the answers. Nevermind that he was also pro-war, pro-colonialism and all sorts of bogus rational worldviews. A totally anti-ecological hubris. Very similar to say Yuval Harari today. The technological determinism of white men. F*CK you!

One is free to have faith in faith ….McGrath is one of so many millions

Mr Abdullahi An-Naim said Sharia is not Divine. That is not true. Sharia is Divine. To cut the hands of the thieves is Divine. Allah ordered us to cut the hands of the thieves in his holy book, the Quran. I'm not saying all, but most Muslim scholars in the West do not tell the truth about their religion. He said Sharia is not Divine. That is a joke. Hi is saying Sharia is the Human understanding of the Divine!. It is just like saying the American Constitution is not the American Constitution. The Human understanding of the American constitution is the Constitution. I call that playing with the words.

love the distinction of those two ways of understanding secularization

The Mormon Church - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has gone mainstream under the prophet President Russell Marion Nelson who represents a new generation of Mormon leadership who sees the LDS church as part of the broader Christian world emphasizing the Xn shared values.

I can see shaykh mashallah how your feeling in this situation I feel you lots to do but I have always appreciated the churches and the way the Christian community helps everyone especially in England they organise food banks I tried to get some ideas out there for our Muslim communities but no joy don’t feel bad

I propose an Enlightenment "Ratchet-Effect" that could be fundamentally flawed if materialism and mechanistic progress are used to explain the origin of humans. This flaw is highlighted by the works of Thomas Nagel and Alvin Plantinga. Additionally, the physics supporting this criticism of materialistic non-teleology suggests that only nano-scaled organisms, such as single-celled organisms, can be the likely outcome. An alternative, non-Darwinian "Ratchet-Effect" might be responsible for the origin of species, driven not by survival but by consciousness. While mechanistic outcomes, such as bacteria and single-celled ecosystems, will persist in all environments, consciousness represents an observable outcome that can transcend the Darwinian "Mechanistic Ratchet Effect," leading towards higher levels of conscious experience of God and His Creation.

Like most here, I hold Hitch in pretty high regard. But I do think he does not fully take on board one very consequential angle. In his speech, he attempts to confront the audience with the fact that God and heaven, as construed in the New Testament, is nothing short of a "celestial dictatorship". He expects them to be taken aback by pressure of this revelation. What I don't think he really gets is how many of them are happy to picture God and heaven as a celestial dictatorship. They aren't repulsed by that idea at all. So the pressure he means to apply by it is completely effete. I wish Hitch would have gotten a firmer hold on that particular wrinkle in his polemic while he was alive. Most of the "flock" are overjoyed about the authoritarian nature of the idea of it all.

Hitchens articulated his point like no other that I have heard or read. I don't believe his argument was against people of genuine faith, rather than the exploitation of those people by so-called men of the cloth in the name of god. People like Joel Osteen and the like who are the antithesis of their own preaching. It's "pay-as-you-go salvation". Rubbish with it's own brand of vile stench.

Indeed!

‘Absolutely normative’ … help me out, Hitch: what the heck does that mean?

Hans Kung legacy

The ‘truth’ of the resurrection doesn’t set me free. Newton’s theories do, and so would Einstein’s if I could understand them better. However, it should be said that Newton had to keep his beliefs to himself. No kidding, since he must inevitably have rejected the Trinity nonsense in his own mind; he had far too piercing an intellect to have been able to hold himself to that ridiculous suspension of logical physical principles. Newton and Einstein would have had tremendous fun listening to and debating Hitchens, although Hitchens would have had a huge problem keeping up with their understanding of physics and applied mathematics! I think Christopher would have had a massively Islamic moment in their presence, although I think they would have been too preoccupied debating their own applied mathematical concepts to have paid him much attention.

Oh, how I wish we still had CH alive to excoriate humanity for belief in silly nonsense like the resurrection. They even had to specify that the stone blocking the entrance to the cave was too heavy to move. Give me a break!

My wife was sexually abused by Thomas Pyne, a 42 year old priest at Gonzaga Boys school in Wash DC. She was a 16 year old student at the adjacent girls school.

NGL I skipped the apologist because I don't suffer fools gladly.

Thank you for the insight!
