Blair 'to do God' in debate with Hitchens - News, People - The Independent
Is this perhaps the blind leading the blind? In anticipation of this non-event – Tony Blair v Christopher Hitchens – let me sum up the overblown New Atheists:
Richard Dawkins - “I can explain stuff therefore there is no God”
Derren Brown – “I can pull a rabbit out of a hat therefore there is no God”
Christopher Hitchens and Sam Brown - “Life’s a bitch therefore there’s no God”
As you can see, the intellectual standard in this ongoing circus of non-ideas is mind-numbingly mediocre. But that would explain their popularity with the great unwashed who never want to go to that much trouble in pursuit of the truth.
