I have NEVER EVER heard Christopher Hitchens say anything that didn't make sense. For us to lose this genius in a period of history where he's needed the most is beyond tragic. I am one of those who "went along to get along. As a young man, from 14 to 16, worked at The Catholic Archdiocese of The City I'm from. No I didn't have even one bad moment from the priests. On the contrary, because I was a huge baseball fan as a boy, they would play catch with me, give me tickets to Major league games and try to talk me into being a priest. I gave it some serious thought but, for reasons I still can't understand or explain I somehow couldn't "believe" the whole "script". Then I heard a debate with Hitchens. He was so informed, so knowledgable on what seemed like a boring subject, and so witty and literally funny. The GREATEST irony would be a hundred years from now when science and reason are what's accepted and folks "worship" Hitchens like

No religion can answer this question nor can provide evidence for the life of the hereafter. The reason is very simple... they Do Not have the correct concept of God... period. The evidence and answer lies in knowing the correct concept of God. Where to find it? Its in the Quran i.e. the concept of Allah is based on evidence based Divine Attributes. Hereafter is related to the human accoutability... where to read all this? What is Islam? By G. A. Parwez... the sectarian religious Islam cannot answer it...

Please worship the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, THE LORD GOD and try not to worry too much about the differences between the different religions and denominations, try to think about the similarities and the things they may have in common more than the differences.

How eloquently each participant spoke with no absolute truth about the afterlife. That being said, I do appreciate the mental stimulation. These conversations are profitable for personal growth. However, boil everything down and the answer is that we do not know anything about the afterlife. In my opinion, the afterlife is a mystery on purpose. I perceive a Creator and that this power keeps the afterlife a secret. If one knew what is going to happen, then one would behave in a different manner than the way that one behaves with the mystery. In my opinion every human being along with all of creation is an expression of God, including the good and the evil. All hangs in the balance of choice and each choice has consequences. In the consequences one finds the lesson.

I've watched plenty of debates between Hitchens and others, but never a debate as good as this. This debate was all around fantastic and had some serious firepower on both sides which is what makes the debate so good. It was as balanced a debate as I could imagine. I'm not as much a fan of Sam as I am of Hitchens, but he did a really great job in this debate. He spoke only when he knew that what he was saying would further the discussion and otherwise just listened without trying to interrupt or be too antagonistic. In fact, they all did a fantastic job. I was not familiar with Bradley before watching this video, but I quite like him as a speaker. Of course, Hitchens was--as always--absolutely brilliant.

@@FlyingSpaghettiMonster2000ALL organized religions are cults.
You need to explain it with more details? Hope you can...
She was a great person. What an insight she had. Her books are outstanding. Her comments about the lack of funding for "marginalized" scientists are tragic. And an appalling commentary on how governments and universities fund science.
Hitch stole the show as per usual
56:00, when Hitch claps for you, you know you have made it in the public speaking business.
Why does he have a pot holder on his head?
It's called a Yamaka.
Where religion ends, philosophy begins.
And now you are on the second level of hell for bullshitters. The third level is country music. ;-)
The Secret Air Service Regiment soldiers curse their trainers like Job? I was told by one that one of his mentors had passed away and it made him feel sad, at the moment I hate them, or I don't know how I feel, or I love them, but overall, I'm going to be grateful I believe. Now that I wrote that, thank you 4 where ever you are for having a video on my screen with a comments section.
The bad things i've said about jews I did mean at the time, but now I love them since I know Hitchens was a jewish person.
Christopher Hitchens was an incredibly intelligent and intelligent. He was amazingly read well and had strong views. What happened to him when he died? Maybe we'll never know. But he was forever entertaining , interesting; and always made you think and examine known and accepted views. A very special person indeed.
I should have written intelligent and articulate. Apologies.
So he is being praised in the after life by you and others??? How do you see it?
@@ejazrasool7443 Err .. not really . I obviously mean when he was alive!
@@rosemarystewart7405 thanks for the response... CH was very intelligent and articulate... why did he die? These 5 have failed to provide answer to the question of death? Is that it to our life or more to it? Religions obviously cannot provide the answer???
@@ejazrasool7443 i loved CH answer to what death is like- you have to leave the party but it will go on without you! Funny, sad and clever....
I'm 21. My mother was 52. She passed away today. 24.03.2024. My grandmother (her mother) passed away on January 4th. I just hope we'll meet some day. I just hope there is something
Sorry for you loss. What there is is a lifetime of memories of a beloved person. There is also grief and acceptance and a life without them. Give it time.
@@schmetterling4477 Thank you
Sorry for your loss. ✌️❤️
Even if nothing exists after death, we will all be together in nothing❤
Would have been cool to have a believer in an afterlife involved in the discussion.
@1:22:18- "When I was 12, my only Jewish friend in school became a Christian after seeing Jesus. Yes, that was me, at the same boarding school as Chris Hitchens. And Hitch gave me a melvin in the locker room!"

YOUNG ATHEIST! HELP ME OUT , EDIT THIS VIDEO WITHOUT THE TWO JEWS WORD-SALAD, NONSENSE !
Why? Then we can’t hear the funny nonsense lol
Has any ever summarized the delusional thinking relating to the concept of an afterlife better than Harris in the 1st couple of minutes? There’s not a clap or murmur from the audience and the next speaker doesn’t even reference it. 2 minutes of irrefutable common sense that, if you actually absorb it, is impossible not to understand. Confused about religion? 2 minutes to change your life, drop the other 10,000 hours of KZread debate and get on with doing something productive (I’ve listened to the other 10,000 hours, this is all you need).
I've watched plenty of debates between Hitchens and others, but never a debate as good as this. This debate was all around fantastic and had some serious firepower on both sides which is what makes the debate so good. It was as balanced a debate as I could imagine. I'm not as much a fan of Sam as I am of Hitchens, but he did a really great job in this debate. He spoke only when he knew that what he was saying would further the discussion and otherwise just listened without trying to interrupt or be too antagonistic. In fact, they all did a fantastic job. I was not familiar with Bradley before watching this video, but I quite like him as a speaker. Of course, Hitchens was--as always--absolutely brilliant.
If I remember you after you die, that’s an afterlife. If you die, that’s your “end of the world”. The good you do while alive is your afterlife. Or everlasting life if you will, but it needs to be remembered to be valid to humans.
Exactly. Well said.
This proves beyond all doubt that religious is just a sick joke
I love Christopher Hitchens. Miss him so much
