Entry: Hitchens' Haj Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/hitchens_haj#7065 Post contents: John Ball - how can you abolish something that doesn't exist? Chris hitchens doesn't want to abolish God as he doesn't believe there is a God to abolish. I think he's quite right in wanting to abolish the permission religious fanatics give themselves to act immorally or selfishly or in line with their own prejudices, as if faith in a deity excuses their behaviour. All he's saying is that it doesn't. And he doesn't believe in God or the tooth fairy or Santa in a red and white Coca-Cola suit. I wonder what he would say about the madness of love?
