I would like to see Christopher Hitchens debate against Ravi Zacharias. That’d be so freaking sweet, haha.

Of all the people I’ve seen christopher debate on this topic, Peter by far does the best. Probably because he’s Christopher’s brother is just as smart. I also must say that this is not Christopher’s best performance. Not even close to his performance at the 2009 Christian book expo.

You can see by the rather poor attempt at a point and by the imbued sense of inferiority that Peter displays as he sits down that he is displeased at a public showing of his lesser intellect than that of his brother. While both are intelligent, Christopher is clearly the superior intellect. It is always saddening to see an intellectual allow themselves to be convinced of the great lie.

What about brother Cornel West, damn sweet! And they’re friends too so it could happen. BTW my money’d be on Dr. West as he’s an even more rousing speaker than Hitch.

i admire peter for agreeing to the debate because he’s clearly not enjoying it but is compelled to stand up for his beleifs despite Christoper’s confidence & success.

@HowdyNrealLife The very fact that God put Abraham and Isaac through that mental trauma is the whole point of the immorality of the story. God is putting Abraham through tremendous stress and at the end tells him “I’m just yanking your chain”. Okay, now that that’s over, try to justify the story of Job for me.

Well, I would get into a huge debate about this, because people like to attack it, but I won’t. You can see your interpretation and roll with it all you want; I know my God and I know what He’s done for me. That being said, during the offering of Isaac, afterwards, what did God do? Bless him, read verse 22:17, “That in blessing I will bless thee, and in the multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy

He ended up getting blessed.
Now, we could get into a “moral” discussion about the book of Job, but like I said, I’m not going to debate because it’s pointless (due to the fact that I assume you won’t change your mind in the first place) — but all I will say is that God ended up blessing Job twice as much for doing
