If being rationale human being, questioning and reasoning with any ideology, cult, political system and totalitarian dictatorship while taking a pride in humanity, philosophy and science... if all this cause a fuss (which shouldn't) and offend people (which shouldn't), then what is freedom of speech and thoughts? Does it only exist for religions? They got social license to preach but if someone criticize it then it's offensive and hate speech. I am still waiting what your point is?
@JustinShaw That's the point really, but the way hate speech laws stand in the UK at the moment if anyone finds anything you say or do, regardless of intent and context, offensive, then it is offensive.
Free speech in the UK is dead.
His vendetta against Mother Teresa was spot on and I miss his rapier like wit
RIP Hitch

That's kinda the point he made with the quote
I have one of those at the moment because they are so fragile that they cannot understand an action cannot apply to them...as in "if Santa's helper's intelligence enables him only to study for qualification of chicken plucker and nothing more taxing" does not mean that the reader has been accused of having the IQ of a Downes syndrome.

I have often thought that, to me Peter Hitchen is an insult to his brothers memory.
did you ever see the debate they had? spoiler Chris wiped the floor with the smug git.
@LenHazell53 Yes I saw it. Just the way he holds his nose in the air makes me queasy.

Posted by webspider555I’m beginning to wonder whether our government is just incompetent or are all these things happening just to get us in a rage arguing amongst ourselves.
