All I can say after reading this is that when my time comes I hope it's from a heart attack and not cancer.

He has a strong enough mind to know when to agree to disagree. Lots of people here could learn from him.

Anyway, I don't often agree with Mr. Hitchens, but respect him immensely. ATM, there isn't a single more engaging speaker in the world. He makes people like Al Gore look droll and crusty.

Even I make Al Gore seem "droll and crusty."

Well, Al does have a Nobel prize. Though I have respect for all religions, as long as Mr. Gore doesn't impose his on me. 🙂
