Cold and Lonely TruthDebate: Does God Exist? William Lane Craig vs. Christopher Hitchens (2009)On April 4, 2009, William Lane Craig and Christopher Hitchens met at Biola University to debate the question of God’s existence. Craig is one of the world’s foremost Christian apologists. Hitchens, is a leading spokesman for the “new atheism” movement.

It was a compelling clash of worldviews and an examination of the major arguments for and against Christianity and atheism.

Peter Hitchens, Ed Turner & Peter HarrisFrom 2016: Until his death from cancer over four years ago, Christopher Hitchens was one of the preeminent figures of new atheism: a prolific writer who was eloquent, witty and in great demand for his speaking and debating.

In this show we assess some of his arguments against religion, including the claim that "religion poisons everything" and belief in God is like believing in a celestial North Korean dictator.

The Hated and the DeadEP86: Christopher HitchensChristopher Hitchens was an Anglo-American writer, journalist, literary critic and essayist. Not a thinker who one can characterise easily, the one thing linking all Hitchens’ writing and his utterances- he was a formidable debater- was his opposition to totalitarian thought. This often sparked controversy- especially his views on Islam and his support for the War in Iraq- but for all the descriptions of him as a shallow contrarian, the authenticity of his opposition to totalitarian ideologies cannot be denied.

Decoding the GurusChristopher Hitchens: Rhetoric, Religion, and RamadanOur short-lived Christopher Hitchens ends in our second episode and full-length decoding of the punchy Brit. This time we are examining one of his well-known religion-themed debates, debating the question 'Is Islam a Religion of Peace?' for The 92nd Street Y, New York with the academic and writer Tariq Ramadan. This one feels like a bit of a throwback to a post-9/11 & Iraq war world. New Atheism was still a cultural force with some punch but it had also received its own fair share of body blows since its earlier days as a plucky new contender.

Hitchens excelled at polemics. He considered himself to be politically liberal and yet expressed his full-throated support for the war in Iraq and called Hillary Clinton “an aging and resentful female”. And then there were the blistering attacks on religion and religious belief. He also details: how religion is a worse than any totalitarian regime, why science and religion are fundamentally incompatible, and why it’s a bad time for secularism in politics. Somehow, despite this talk being 13 years old now...

The Time of MonstersPodcast: What Happened to Christopher Hitchens?In the days after September 11, 2001, Christopher Hitchens became unmoored. His politics had been in flux for a few years prior, but the terrorist attacks, to which Hitchens initially reacted with wariness and uncertainty, transformed his worldview. Before 9/11 Hitchens had been very broadly an anti-imperialist, albeit one who became in the 1990s increasingly open to military interventions (such as the Bosnian War, which could be justified on liberal humanitarian grounds). But after 9/11, Hitchens became something more than a critical supporter of a few military interventions. He turned into nothing less than a pro bono mouthpiece for the Paul W...

Give Me An Argument - The Ben Burgis Call-In ShowEpisode 4: Christopher Hitchens, New Atheism, and Left “Apostates”(Take two, this had to be canceled last week!) Christopher Hitchens died ten years ago this month.. Ben wrote a book about him that’s coming out on New Years (https://redemmas.org/titles/36536-christopher-hitchens--what-he-got-right--how-he-went-wrong--and-why-he-still-matters). Ben and guest Josh Strachan, who was one of Hitchens’s students at the New School, are going to talk and take calls about what was good (sometimes very good—see many of his books and debates) and bad (sometimes horrifically bad—see his support for the Iraq War) about “Hitch” and his many legacies.

Since he was a formative influence to both of us here at the Little Platoon, I thought I'd upload my own - suspiciously terse, he might have said - reflections on who he was, what he meant, what he teaches; and, most importantly, on how *not* to treat him today.

Beyond Atheism PodcastEpisode 25: The Legacy of Christopher Hitchens, with Dr. Ben BurgisChristopher Hitchens was perhaps the wittiest and most vibrant of the atheist “Four Horsemen” until his passing in 2011. In addition to religious criticism, over his long career as a writer and journalist, “Hitch” turned his critical pen against many figures, including Bill and Hillary Clinton, Henry Kissinger, and even Mother Teresa. But his career was not without controversy, particularly his support for the Iraq War in 2003, which seemed to contradict his socialist politics. To talk about Hitchens’s complex legacy – and other subjects including cancel culture, YouTube debates, and the links between socialism and atheism – we are joined by Dr. Ben Burgis, a...

Peter Hitchens, Ed Turner & Peter Harris (plus Unbelievable? 2016 announced)Until his death from cancer over four years ago, Christopher Hitchens was one of the preeminent figures of new atheism: a prolific writer who was eloquent, witty and in great demand for his speaking and debating.

In this show we assess some of his arguments against religion, including the claim that "religion poisons everything" and belief in God is like believing in a celestial North Korean dictator.

He denounces the moral relativism of religions and argues that atheists also have strong moral convictions and high principles. His intellectual commentary continues along the lines of his bestselling book, God is Not Great, as he argues that the mythology of religions is not only absurd but, in many instances, destructive. For Hitchens, the beauty and miracle of life in the universe is even more...
